Riassunto

What does a truly global manager today need to know to lead responsibly? How does he or she develop the core management competencies needed? Globally Responsible Leadership: Managing According to the UN Global Compact uses the UN Global Compact and its Ten Principles as an overarching framework for understanding the issues facing business managers today. Drawing on the knowledge of contributors from different parts of the world, the book shows readers the intersection between business and the major global issues of our time—human rights, labor, the environment, anti-corruption and bribery—and most critically, how to address these issues in the day-to-day running of their operations.
