14 {Character in leadership } Sustainable WE NEED A NEW LEADERSHIP PARADIGM: TO SURVIVE AND PROSPER in the twenty-first century we will need a new leadership paradigm, one that embraces the global common good rather than individual self-interest. THE NEW LEADERSHIP PARADIGM will require our leaders to set aside their narrow political and personal self-interests and embrace a collaborative approach based on values-driven decision-making that supports the wellbeing of everyone; not just the elites and privileged members of our society, but the poor, the elderly, the disenfranchised and the disadvantaged. ~ Barrett Value Centre

15 {Leadership-as a bundle of energy } By logic and reason we die, by imagination we live ~` W.B.Yeats. Spontaneous emotion is often feared; but Jack Welch, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison people who had fire in their belly, not afraid of expressing emotion. Individuals need to see that their organisation has room for bold moves, leaps of imagination, passion and vision.leaders can do so by showing it themselves. Executives have to feel that expression of emotion does not have negative career implications. Expression, contrarian opinion, they enjoy.
