Ethics in Leadership Learning and Development: From Infusing to Insisting IndexReviews'Leading Beyond the Ego is an important book for at least two reasons. First, it is firmly grounded in John Knights’ direct experience, showcasing both personal and professional growth. This authenticity will resonate deeply with senior executives, as John’s career serves as a credible example of responsible leadership. The message is loud and clear: If I can do it, you can too. Second, it is one of the few leadership development books that seamlessly combines high-quality theory and practice. Utilizing the powerful framework of the three intelligences, it integrates proven practical tools to build and measure a systematic pathway towards better individual and organizational leadership. The result is a unique resource that convincingly illustrates that leadership is ‘merely’ a matter of practice: everyone can become a good leader, one chapter at a time. Having worked with John for many years, I fully subscribe to his mission. May his book inspire many future leaders to transcend their ego and practice transpersonal leadership. The world needs it!'
