By Doug Lennick, Fred Kiel
Doug Lennick, a former Amex top executive, and Fred Kiel do a masterful job of distinguishing moral intelligence from the balance of “threshold competencies” required for leadership excellence. They focus on four universal principles that are vital for sustained personal and organizational success: integrity, responsibility, compassion and forgiveness, noting that “integrity is the hallmark of the morally intelligent person.” This is a superbly researched book with many practical examples that will help readers build their “moral compass,” stay true to their moral compass, lead their organizations more effectively and live their lives more fully.
