WHAT PHILOSOPHY CAN TEACH YOU ABOUT BEING A BETTER LEADER
Book ID/图书代码： 07682019C00025
English Summary/英文概要： Traditional management practices, rooted in economics and psychology, have led to a focus on numbers and productivity rather than the people who make those numbers happen. This has resulted in trust in leaders and organizations being at an all-time low. What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader expertly counters this thinking and argues that those leaders who will win in the uncertain and complex world of work, are the ones focusing on their workforce and valuing its members as people, rather than just tools within the process.
What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader considers the main questions plaguing today’s leaders through the eyes of four of the greatest philosophers. With the help of Aristotle, Socrates, Kant and Nietzsche, as well as a whole host of other brilliant minds, they smash widely held workplace falsehoods and unveil a new model for empowerment, fulfilment and harmony at work.
What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader is a fascinating account of how we can reconnect company, people and shareholder interests. It answers perennial leadership concerns like questions of people engagement, key performance indicators or even generational differences at work through the lens of philosophy, with its focus squarely on how to live and help others live fulfilling lives at work.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 传统的管理实践植根于经济学和心理学，导致往往聚焦于数据和产出，而忽略了背后的人。这导致了对领导和企业的信任度降到了最低点。本书以专业的态度反对上述思维模式，并指出，只有聚焦于员工并将其员工当成人而非生产工具来对待的领导，才能在复杂而不确定的世界中立于不败之地。
