Publisher's Synopsis
Leverage the classical Greek virtues for sustained success with a powerful guide from the authors of Exception to the Rule
Virtue is more than a word: it's a way for us all to live, a way to flourish as human beings. And when applied to organizational life, virtue serves to enhance engagement, strengthen relationships, and foster success in business. Picking up where the acclaimed Exception to the Rule left off, Better Humans, Better Performance connects the classical Greek virtues-Trust, Compassion, Courage, Justice, Temperance, Wisdom, and Hope-with authoritative science that can help you achieve the highest performance.
The authors draw on these virtues with a purpose-driven approach to every aspect of organizational success, including:
- Cultivating excellence in leadership
- The keys to performance-based teamwork
- Why engaged organizational culture is so vital
- Character education for families
- Integrity as a growth market
- The science of resiliency
- Coaching and deliberate practice for high performance
