Description

Recent corporate scandals around the world have shaken our trust in today's business leaders. This book offers inspiration and lessons for young leaders on overcoming the moral, ethical, and personal dilemmas they will face as they climb the ladder to success. Remember Who You Are, edited by HBS alumni Daisy Wademan, is a collection of compelling personal stories told by renowned Harvard Business School professors from Rosabeth Moss Kanter to Nitin Nohria to HBS Dean Kim Clark - on balancing the personal and professional responsibilities of leadership. Offering a rare glimpse inside the classrooms in which many of the world's prominent leaders were trained, this book ironically imparts lessons learned not in business, but in life. From how a widowed mother taught respect for people not job titles, to how a disabled child revealed the importance of family time above overtime - these unforgettable stories will help young leaders in any profession to use their time and talents in ways that truly matter.
