—Kenneth J. Arrow, Joan Kenney Professor of Economics and professor of operations research, Stanford University; winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics
"Deborah Rhode and colleagues take aim at the vacuous platitudes
that pass for moral insight in much of today's writing on
leadership. Anyone with a serious interest in moral
leadership will appreciate this headlong dive into its complexities
and challenges."
—Lynn Sharp Paine, John G. McLean Professor of Business
Administration, Harvard Business School; author, Value
Shift
"I am struck by the ability of this collection to tell
us about aspects of human behavior that are surprises to
most of us and aid our understanding of moral
leadership."
—Max H. Bazerman, Straus Professor, Harvard Business School;
author, Predictable Surprises and Judgments in Managerial
Decision Making
"An unusually sophisticated and informative analysis of
the formidable challenge of promoting ethical leadership in
organizations. It deserves to be widely read by both those
who teach and study ethics, and those who aspire to lead and
create more responsible organizations."
—David Vogel, Solomon L. Lee Distinguished Professor
of Business Ethics, Haas School of Business, University of
California, Berkeley; author, The Market for Virtue
"This collection of essays takes a fresh look at one of today's
most urgent concerns, moral leadership in the public domain. The
book is important reading for anyone who believes that moral
leadership may still be possible, even during a time of ethical
degradation in many key social institutions."
—William Damon, professor of education, Stanford
University
"A stellar group of well-known thinkers. A topic of
commanding importance. Articles that make hard ideas
fascinating and readable. What’s not to like in this striking
new collection of essays? It is hands-down the best anthology
on practical ethics to appear in many years."
—Thomas Donaldson, Mark O. Winkelman Professor, the
Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania
"The heavy hitters in business ethics are well represented in
this timely volume. Their message is of compelling interest
to scholars and business leaders alike."
—Robert H. Frank, Henrietta Johnson Louis Professor of
Management Professor of Economics, Cornell University
