Courageous Character

Mark W. Mccloskey

Chapter Chapter 11 in Learning Leadership in a Changing World, 2014, pp 109-118 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract We live in cynical times when it comes to trusting distant voices, especially those associated with authority. The last decade has seen a precipitous decline in trust in our public institutions and leaders. Economic contractions and major scandal have driven this trust deficit. From Wall Street to Main Street, public leaders and institutions are failing at an alarming rate.
