Summary
Kofman connects business results to responsibility, integrity and the quality of relationships at work. He examines self-awareness, clear communication, conflict and reliable commitments. The book asks leaders to put their values into daily actions rather than leave them as statements apart from the work.
Why read it Our view
Useful when promises and difficult conversations are causing friction. Make commitments clear, ask what each person can control and discuss a failed promise without hiding the facts. Use values to guide the next action rather than to avoid a hard choice.
