Ethical CEOs Finish First - HBR
Fred Kiel, author of Return on Character, explains his research on why being good benefits the bottom line.CEOs Finish First - HBR
"...strong character leaders contributed an amazing:
- almost five times bottom line profitability as do the weak character leaders. And
- they enjoy a much higher level of workforce engagement, about 26% higher. And
- they also have a significant impact on reducing corporate risk to the company.

...it turns out that there is a set of moral principles that are universal among all cultures around the globe: integrity and responsibility (head) forgiveness and compassion (heart)
...innovation will only thrive in a forgiving culture. If people are afraid that if they try out a risky idea or promote some new innovative idea that might turn out to be a bad idea and not be successful, they’re not going to do that if they think they’re putting their career on the line and taking that kind of risk..."
