| Summary, etc | Responsibility as a leader is the ability to respond quickly to a complex and changing business environment. It requires leaders to use their values to make business decisions that not only affect brand trust and corporate reputation, but also impact employees, clients, and the wider community. Leadership development expert Tim Richardson explores the role of responsible leadership in an organization and offers a framework for how to incorporate it into company culture. He identifies what it means to be an authentic leader, taking into account intra-organizational relationships, role modelling and ethical practice. Richardson challenges common-held beliefs established from traditional management methods, and he provides the practical steps needed to achieve organizational change. Drawing on in-depth case studies and examples from companies such as Starbucks, HSBC, PwC, and BodyShop, The Responsible Leader presents a fresh vision for leadership success and a hopeful narrative for the future"-- Provided by publisher.<br/>"Responsibility as a leader is the ability to respond quickly to a complex and changing business environment. It means using values to make decisions that not only affect brand trust and corporate reputation, but impact upon employees and the wider community. In today's increasingly interconnected world, it is more important than ever that managers can achieve goals and desired results while still maintaining a degree of authenticity, ethics and stewardship. The Responsible Leader identifies what it means to be an authentic leader, taking in intra-organizational relationships, role modelling and ethical practice. Addressing the practical challenge of implementing a framework of corporate social responsibility in an organization that may embrace thousands of people, The Responsible Leader sets out what this strategy looks like in practice and advises on creating a new and hopeful narrative for the future. Drawing on in-depth case studies from HSBC, PwC, Oasis and Marks and Spencers that chart the journey to responsible and sustainable management in challenging environments, it presents a fresh vision for leadership success that goes beyond simple compliance. |
