Today’s concluding 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 ten 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.
