The complexity facing today’s organizations calls for a
rethinking of leadership. The world is facing grand challenges for
people and planet. Leaders and employees bear the responsibility of
formulating strategies grounded in strong values. These strategies
aim to foster the growth of sustainable organizations and promote
ethical work practices. This book gives voice to values-based
leadership and provides a method for leaders to develop a
values-based organizational culture. Values play a role on many
levels in how we work as individual leaders, in teams, in
organizations, and in how organizations approach societal
challenges. Values can be a compass or orientation point, giving
direction for decisions and actions. Awareness of values can make
organizational responsibilities clearer and give a sense of meaning
to work, and help leaders to create organizations where corporate,
moral, and social values are embedded at every level. This book
gives insight into a Scandinavian values-based leadership model
built on the institutional leadership tradition. It provides
processes and practices that leaders can use to develop
organizations where values are continuously nurtured. The book
provides practical ideas of how leaders can work on becoming
conscious of both the organization’s explicit and implicit
values, as well as working on the direction of the organization and
its broader organizational culture. This book will be an invaluable
resource for both practitioners and graduate students interested in
leadership and organizational development.
