The Warren Bennis Series
 
"Material that needs to be widely read - urgently." (Long Range Planning, 40/2007)

"The role of ethics in the conduct of business, the professions, and politics is very properly receiving increased attention in a world characterized by relations among distant and disparate agents.  This pushes to the forefront the moral obligations of leaders.   This book draws together the leading analysts of moral leadership, and the many aspects of moral leadership are synthesized in a masterful introduction by the editor."
—Kenneth J. Arrow, Joan Kenney Professor of Economics and professor of operations research, Stanford University; winner of  the Nobel Prize in Economics

"Deborah Rhode and colleagues take aim at the vacuous platitudes that pass for moral insight in much of today's writing on leadership.  Anyone with a serious interest in moral leadership will appreciate this headlong dive into its complexities and challenges."
—Lynn Sharp Paine, John G. McLean Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School; author, Value Shift

"I am struck by the ability of this collection to tell us about aspects of human behavior that are surprises to most of us and aid our understanding of moral leadership."
—Max H. Bazerman, Straus Professor, Harvard Business School; author, Predictable Surprises and Judgments in Managerial Decision Making

"An unusually sophisticated and informative analysis of the formidable challenge of promoting ethical leadership in organizations.  It deserves to be widely read by both those who teach and study ethics, and those who aspire to lead and create more responsible organizations."
—David Vogel, Solomon L. Lee Distinguished Professor of Business Ethics, Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley; author, The Market for Virtue

"This collection of essays takes a fresh look at one of today's most urgent concerns, moral leadership in the public domain. The book is important reading for anyone who believes that moral leadership may still be possible, even during a time of ethical degradation in many key social institutions."
—William Damon, professor of education, Stanford University

"A stellar group of well-known thinkers.  A topic of commanding importance.  Articles that make hard ideas fascinating and readable. What’s not to like in this striking new collection of essays?  It is hands-down the best anthology on practical ethics to appear in many years."
—Thomas Donaldson, Mark O. Winkelman Professor, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania

"The heavy hitters in business ethics are well represented in this timely volume.  Their message is of compelling interest to scholars and business leaders alike."
—Robert H. Frank, Henrietta Johnson Louis Professor of Management Professor of Economics, Cornell University
