Values-based leadership

by Susan Smith Kuczmarski

Employees need values they can believe in. But due to the mergers and downsizing of the last decade, age-old norms of employment security have gone by the wayside - leaving workers feeling betrayed, confused, and apathetic about their jobs. As a result, many American organizations have lost the spirit and loyalty of their workforce as well as their competitive edge. Values-Based Leadership offers a powerful vision to reinvigorate and restore the heart and soul of organizations. This timely book demonstrates how to replace the feeling of "anomie"--Disillusionment, isolation, and hopelessness - and re-energize employees with a renewed sense of belonging, commitment and connection to their organizations. This comprehensive guide enables all types of organizations to reinvigorate their staff and restore security, community. and purpose.
