Riassunto

Core values and principles can sustain and inspire you during challenging times, and the more you practice and embody them, the more likely you are to become a wiser leader. 

Paul D. Houston, executive director emeritus of the American Association of School Administrators, and Stephen L. Sokolow, a founding partner and executive director of the Center for Empowered Leadership, offer eighteen core leadership values and principles to help you do the right things, in the right way, at the right time, and for the right reasons. The core values you’ll learn include how to 

focus on the positive; 
empower and uplift others; 
operate from a base of compassion; and 
recognize the seeds of wisdom. 

Wise leaders view all people as having natural gifts, and it’s important to help them grow. What’s more, supporting and valuing people encourages them to do more for you and for the organization. 

Enhance organizational productivity, creativity, and capacity by learning and applying eighteen core values of The Wise Leader. 

“Never will you find such a constellation of distilled wisdom on leadership for all circumstances.” 
—Michael Fullan, professor emeritus, OISE/University of Toronto
