Drawing on decades of research by the Center for Creative Leadership, Gene Klann provides a clear framework for developing leaders of character that includes rich discussions of role models, the importance of challenging work experiences, leadership character training, and organizational culture. Klann also provides several useful tools, such as a personal values self-assessment, a checklist of good leader behaviors, and 17 scenarios of leadership character dilemmas that can be used for discussion purposes. This book is an excellent addition to the literature on a vital element of leadership development that has received less attention than it should.
