âManagers are concerned with doing things right. Leaders are concerned with doing the right things.â âAnonymousâ
âThere is no such thing as business ethics. Just ethics. Itâs not separate from the rest of your life. If you have a Rolodex of ethics or values for various circumstances, youâre not a business person. Youâre Tony Soprano!â
đ Cognition of the Bookâs Big Idea
Business failure can be caused by isolation, infallibility, conflicting signals, fear of the future, and a lack of passion. Effective leaders interact with their colleagues, own up to errors, communicate effectively, have a positive outlook on the future, and cultivate strong bonds with clients and businesses. Sincere connections and careful brand management foster loyalty and trust, which lays a solid foundation for long-term company success.
