This is a story of triumph that urges readers to join the movement to recover business ethics. Dr. Kenneth Majer weaves a tale that demonstrates how to apply key elements of leadership based on solid personal values. The principles in this book provide a foundation for aligning an organization in an ethically based culture. The story illustrates the positive impact leaders with integrity can have on business performance.
Ken Majer demonstrates that values-based companies are stronger, more profitable, and more successful than companies that do not operate from a foundation of values. Many chief executives understand it is important to have a set of shared core values. However, problems occur, as Ken illustrates here with novelistic drama, when a CEO and her senior staff do not work “off the same page” of values.
Making the commitment to infuse values into your organization’s lifeblood is what transforms a chief executive into a leader. Today, more than ever, we live in an age where values and ethics are a vital component of how business is done. In Values in Action!, Ken uses the power of storytelling to demonstrate how shared, aligned values lead to enhanced performance and the kind of growth every chief executive is looking for.

What is unique is that while most of us intellectualize it, the Williamsons just do it!” – Steven Ramirez, Chairman and Global Trustee, Ronald McDonald House Charities
