Opis

The altrupreneur is a manager who conducts the affairs of an enterprise with conspicuous regard for the welfare of others and bulds communities that produce value for all the organization's stakeholders. Drawing examples from top and middle management, authors of this text describe the characteristics of altrupreneurs and the core principles by which they operate: their values and vision; optimism; integrity; confidence and enthusiasm.

Recenzje

"Nagle and Pascarella's concept "altrupreneur" _ a difficult term to pronounce and a very difficult role to fill _ captures the essence of the kind of leaders organizations need."
_Warren Bennis, from the Foreword

"This book encourages those of us who want to make a little difference every day. It also dares us to be bold and public an exemplary in holding others in conspicuous and high regard."
_Louis Patler, from the Afterword

"Nagle and Pascarella are correct in believing that . . . treating people the right way, with clarity and honesty, turns out to be the best thing for the enterprise."
_Congressman Jim Talent

Their book salutes leaders who create "value-producing organizations" and "value-builing communities" through their conspicuous regard for others. -Industry Week
