From the journey of senior executives to issues of gender and data bias, each month, we’ll discuss one recently released book, and add a new one to the list, so you'll be able to plan ahead.
Our first four books are recent releases that have been very well received. Together they give a sense of the books we’ll read: the first follows the journey of a senior executive in a given company and industry; the second book looks at issues of gender and data bias; and the third and fourth address important geopolitical and economic trends.
Clarke Murphy, former CEO of the leadership advisory Russell Reynolds Associates (RRA) and author of the new book Sustainable Leadership, debunks the myth that leaders have to choose between profits and purpose, showing how businesses have infused sustainability across strategy while growing the bottom line and increasing long-term viability.
In discussion with IMD Lecturer Salvatore Cantale, Murphy shares examples of CEOs who are leading the way and provides guidance for those seeking to advance sustainability agendas.
