February 13, 2022 the Best Books for Ethical Leaders, Part II edition


Today’s episode was inspired by the Notre Dame Deloitte Center for Ethical Leadership and its Faculty Fellows who recently put together their annual list of Best Books for Ethical Leaders. In it, they share books published during the 2021 “that bridge the worlds of business and academia and provide practical insights that can help leaders live and work more ethically.” In this second of two episodes of the Sunday Book Review, I conclude my exploration of their list.
·      There is Nothing for you Here: Finding Opportunity in the Twenty-First Century by Fiona Hill, selected by Jessica McManus Warnell.
·      Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It by Ethan Kross, selected by Christopher Adkins.
