Integrity is a Growth Market: Character-Based Leadership is rooted in the seven classical virtues and adds to those a few modern values everyone should recognize: character, competence, courage, faith, justice, leadership and corporate responsibility, prudence, temperance, love, hope, and worthiness. Character based leadership encourages ethical practices, collaboration and open communication, and the creation of high-trust business environments.
