When these factors are absent or ineffective, the organizational conditions compel employees to choose dishonesty and self-interest. But when done well, the organization is 16 times more likely to have people tell the truth, behave fairly and serve a greater good. <p/><b><i>To Be Honest</i></b> shares the stories of leaders who have acted with purpose, honesty and justice even when it was difficult to do so. In-depth interviews with CEOs and senior executives from exemplar companies such as Patagonia, Cabot Creamery, Microsoft and others reveal what it takes to build purpose-driven companies of honesty and justice. Interviews with thought leaders like Jonathan Haidt, Amy Edmondson, Dan Ariely and James Detert offer rich insights on how leaders can become more honest and purposeful. You'll learn how Hubert Joly took Best Buy from a company on the brink of bankruptcy to one that is profitable, thriving and purposeful. <p/>Filled with real-life examples, <b><i>To Be Honest</i></b> offers actionable steps, practical tools and approaches that any leader or manager can use to create a culture of purpose, honesty and justice.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b><i>To Be Honest</i></b> is a fresh look at a concept our world has too long taken for granted. <b>Ron Carucci</b> masterfully weaves together inspiring stories with groundbreaking research.
