He persuasively demonstrates that authentic leaders of mission-driven companies will create far greater shareholder value than financially oriented companies." "George candidly recounts many of the toughest challenges he encountered - from ethical dilemmas and battles with the FDA to his own development as a leader. He shows how to develop the five essential dimensions of authentic leaders - purpose, values, heart, relationships, and self-discipline."--Jacket UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/wiley046/2003005592.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/wiley039/2003005592.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/wiley032/2003005592.html UR - http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DECRead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0787969133&sessionid=0&srcdbname=worldcat&key=86a89d14a25ccac488fa5630bbb85fce052856ec053436df85d64b7ce428fc5f&ectype=MOREINFO UR - http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DCARead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0787969133:srcdbname=worldcat:fromExternal=true&sessionid=0 UR - http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DECRead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0787969133&sessionid=0&srcdbname=worldcat&key=86a89d14a25ccac488fa5630bbb85fce052856ec053436df85d64b7ce428fc5f&ectype=TOC ER -
