The 6 Principles of Managing with Integrity: A practical guide for leaders

Muel Kaptein

In the shadow of Worldcom and Enron, managing with integrity has risen up the corporate agenda. But managing with integrity has always been of value - and not just to stave off lawsuits …..

Drawing on his work with RSM Erasmus University and international firm KPMG, Muel Kaptein introduces six key principles for managing with integrity. Based on real-life examples, he shows how - through understanding and developing these principles - you can lead by positive example and bring real benefits to yourself, your staff and the wider business. Illustrated with telling cases and insights, The Six Principles shows how you can face the dilemmas, resist the temptations and make the right decisions - an invaluable guide. Muel Kaptein has been a consultant and researcher in the fields of corporate ethics, integrity and social responsibility for over 15 years. Currently professor of business ethics at RSM Erasmus University in the Netherlands, Muel also acts as a consultant at KPMG.
