Dr. Chad Weinstein, president of Ethical Leaders in Action (www.ethinact.com), looks at the connection between ethical leadership and successful companies. How do ethical leaders deliver value—sustainably and profitably for all of the company’s stakeholders? How do they maximize value for all of the company’s stakeholders? How do successful firms work across multiple cultures to create shared expectations and trust? How do they align social responsibility and commercial success? How do they monetize moral motivation? How can adopting an expansive view of social responsibility give you a competitive advantage in your customer and supply chain relationships. How can you transform a vision statement from a collection of expensive words into a strategic leadership tool? What are the five Virtues of Ethical Leadership? What is real cost of corporate bullying—and how do you quash it? How the single-minded pursuit shareholder value can actually put shareholder value in jeopardy?

Global Reach

We are all operating in a dynamic global marketplace, whether we reach across borders to find new customers and fresh ideas or face overseas competitors in our home market.

Global Reach embraces the opportunities and challenges we encounter when operating in multiple countries and cultures. We talk with entrepreneurs and executives about their strategies for winning in fast changing world markets: cross-cultural communication, global branding, media and marketing, transportation and manufacturing, the future of finance, alternative investment strategies, innovation and IP protection.

Global Reach interviews thought leaders about 21st century megatrends that impact international entities: trends like the business and politics of sustainability, the morphing nature of competitiveness, globalization, global companies vs national governments, worldview and growth prescriptions, emerging markets issues, and the corporate impact on society (governance, ethics and leadership).
