Tough choices

By Barbara Ley Toffler

Book Description

In the complex landscape of modern leadership, ethical dilemmas emerge daily, challenging managers to navigate between competing values, pressures, and responsibilities. This insightful exploration takes readers directly into the real experiences of practicing managers who have wrestled with thorny moral questions in their professional lives.

Rather than offering theoretical frameworks or abstract principles, this book presents authentic voices sharing their struggles with actual ethical situations. Through candid interviews, seasoned professionals reveal how they recognized moral crossroads, weighed difficult options, and made decisions that aligned with their values while maintaining their effectiveness as leaders.

The unique approach allows managers themselves to tell their stories, creating a powerful collection of real-world scenarios that readers will immediately recognize from their own careers. These are not hypothetical case studies, but genuine accounts of individuals who faced the challenge of doing what is right while achieving business success.

Barbara Ley Toffler provides thoughtful commentary that helps readers extract deeper meaning from these experiences, offering guidance on identifying ethical situations before they become crises and developing the skills to resolve moral conflicts constructively. This practical resource demonstrates that ethical leadership and professional success are not mutually exclusive, but rather complementary aspects of meaningful work.

For anyone seeking to integrate their values with their professional responsibilities, this book offers both inspiration and practical wisdom drawn from the trenches of real management experience.
