1. Winners Never Cheat: Everyday Values We Learned as Children (But May Have Forgotten) – By Jon Huntsman
   • Next time someone tells you business can’t be done ethically — corners must be cut, negotiations can’t be honest — hand them Jon Huntsman’s new book.
   • He started with practically nothing, and made it to Forbes’ list of America’s Top 100 richest people. Huntsman’s generous about sharing the credit, but in the 21st century, he’s the nearest thing to a self-made multi-billionaire. Now, he presents the lessons of a lifetime: a passionate, inspirational manifesto for returning to the days when your word was your bond, a handshake was sacred, and swarms of lawyers weren’t needed to back it up.
   • This is no mere exhortation: it’s a practical business book about how to listen to your moral compass, even as others ignore theirs.
   • It’s about how you build teams with the highest values, share success, take responsibility, and earn the rewards that only come with giving back.
   • Huntsman’s built his career and fortune on these principles. You don’t live these principles just to ‘succeed’: you live them because they’re right. But in an age of non-stop business scandal, Huntsman’s life proves honesty is more than right: it’s the biggest competitive differentiator
2. Do the Right Thing: How Dedicated Employees Create Loyal Customers and Large Profits – By James F. Parker
   • Learn how Southwest Airlines prospered amidst the adversity of the darkest days in the airline business.
   • In the chaotic wake of 9/11, when other airlines were hitting the panic button, Southwest Airlines made three commitments: no layoffs, no pay cuts and any customer wishing to cancel their flights would receive a full refund.
   • Despite the business risk in these decisions, Southwest Airlines not only remained profitable after 9/11, but became the most highly capitalized airline in the world, and the largest domestic airline in the United States.
   • Learning Objectives:
     • Learn how dedicated and motivated employees can be the key to success in any customer service business.
     • See why employees who enjoy their work do a better job than those who don’t.
     • Hear how Southwest Airlines came to realize that great organizations have great leaders everywhere, not just in the executive suite.
3. Moral Intelligence: Enhancing Business Performance and Leadership Success – By Douglas Lennick and Fred Kiel
   • There is a powerful correlation between strong moral principles and business success.
   • Moral Intelligence also introduces the breakthrough Moral and Emotional Competency Inventory (MECI): an indispensable metric to assess where you and your organization stand right now.
   • In recent years, companies have discovered the value of Emotional Intelligence (EI). But EI isn’t enough: only leaders with strong moral intelligence can build the trust and commitment that are the foundation of truly great businesses. Be one of those leaders, lead one of those companies, with Moral Intelligence.
   • This book makes the business case for Moral Intelligence – How winning executives use “MI” to outperform their competitors How to promoting Moral Intelligence in your business
   • How to understand the core competencies of Moral Intelligence
   • How to focus on what matters: integrity, responsibility, compassion, and forgiveness
   • How to choose principled leaders, and supporting them with a culture of principle
   • Breakthrough metrics for evaluating your organization — and yourself

In this book, two globally respected leadership experts illuminate the connection and define the specific competencies that comprise “moral intelligence,” and show exactly how to promote it throughout your organization. Douglas Lennick and Fred Kiel demonstrate how the best performing companies have leaders with a strong moral compass and the ability to follow it — even in a world that may reward bad behavior in the short run.

Lennick and Kiel identify and help you build the moral skills leaders need most, including integrity, responsibility, compassion, and forgiveness. They offer realistic guidance on being a moral leader in both large organizations and entrepreneurial ventures: guidance reflecting decades of experience coaching executives at the very highest level
