- More about A Business Leader's Guide to Philosophy
This book provides a unique introduction to business leaders to the philosophical lexicon of classical and contemporary ideas relevant to business and leadership. It illustrates the practical application of philosophical ideas and methodologies, such as motivating stakeholders, processing information, and ethically managing relationships, to enhance decision-making and its outcomes. The three pillars of leadership are creative aspiration, knowledge, and ethical character, and the book challenges leaders to seek their own path to self-development inspired by ideas that shape the ecology of capitalism and provide stakeholders with meaning and dignity.

This book offers a distinctive introduction to the philosophical lexicon of classical and contemporary ideas, both for and against, that are pertinent to business and those who aspire to lead it. Instead of presenting the reader with a 'philosophy of leadership,' the author employs his experiences in academia and as a business leader to demonstrate the practical application of philosophical ideas and methodologies encompassing the art and science of being a business leader. These include motivating stakeholders to execute the initial phase of a business plan for a new product or service, processing information (and potentially risky 'hidden-information) that brings the company's vision to fruition, and ethically managing relationships to enhance the quality of decision-making and its outcomes.
Creative aspiration, knowledge, and ethical character constitute the three pillars of leadership within this framework. Within this construct, this book encourages leaders to embark on a journey of self-development, drawing inspiration from ideas that shape the ecology of capitalism and the opportunities it presents to stakeholders to infuse meaning and dignity into their lives through their involvement in business.
