For Business Leaders (and MBAs), Character Counts
This blog first appeared on the Bloomberg Businessweek website. Robert J.

Would successful young leaders, 30 years old–raised after the Depression and World War II–hold divergent attitudes and values that would distinguish them from successful leaders 40 to 60 years older? The next three years were an odyssey full of fun, frustration, and surprises: identifying and interviewing terrific leaders in these two age groups who were willing to spend hours with us, videotaping included.

Harvard's Bill George: A Model of 21st Century Leadership
This blog first appeared on the Bloomberg Businessweek website. Last Saturday morning, Aug. 26, I called my old friend Bill George for two reasons, mainly to wish him a happy birthday on his 70th–I was two weeks early–and to discuss an unlikely article in that morning's Financial Times, "The Mind Business." It reported that some of the "west's biggest companies are embracing eastern spirituality as a path to bigger profits." Among them, General Mills (GIS), Google (GOOG), First Direct, Target (TGT), Aetna (AET), plus many Silicon Valley firms such as Facebook (FB), Twitter, and LinkedIn (LNKD) that share ideas on……Continue Reading Harvard's Bill George: A Model of 21st Century Leadership
