Leadership, corporate responsibility and management ethics underline the human centered paradigm in the complex world of today. One major issue in management is impact on people. This book relates to the outcomes of human interaction within and beyond the borders of an organization. It discusses what motivates moral behavior at the individual and the collective levels, how morality is engrained in markets and how it is deployed in business processes and stakeholder relations. The book shows that human centered management is built and consolidated in four complementary dimensions: ethical, social, economic and institutional. It emphasizes that moral managers and moral markets are essential for business sustainability.
Rethinking Leadership covers ethics development from its origin to help managers understand and confront the 21st century's increasing challenges and disruptions. Its clear narrative and cogent examples bridge scholars and practitioners, with distinctive examples on how to implement human centered management and how to teach the subject to executives.
The author has 30 years of business experience in developed and developing countries and 20 years in academia in the US and in Europe, which provides solid background to effectively and affectively discuss the topic from the multiple angles.

"In the networked society new types of interaction and collaboration require a new focus on their moral implications. Bardy’s book clarifies the moral dimensions of interactions and is timely and compelling."

"Rethinking Leadership provides a systematic analysis of morality and ethics, as well as the social, economic, and institutional perspectives that are part of, and tied to, leadership and the management of an organization and its people. In his text, Dr Bardy offers a knowledge-based analysis of these complex and multifaceted concepts and presents it in a rational, easy to read, methodic fashion. The reader can easily understand how ethics and morality interface with leadership and human centered management to produce the "moral leader"!"
Arthur Rubens, Professor Emeritus, Florida Gulf Coast University, Fort Myers.
"Humans have been very good in creating societal complexity, but they have been less good in creating the organizational conditions under which this complexity can affectively be addressed. This requires an interdisciplinary, human-cent
