In The Touchstones of Leadership, Joseph Carleone distills decades of real-world experience into 45 succinct principles to guide business leaders through adversity. Organized within a comprehensive four-part model, the principles form a strategic compass directing organizations from managing operations to aligning strategy.

While pragmatic, the touchstones also inspire leaders to act with emotional intelligence, seek growth opportunities, build trust, and make values-driven decisions. From historical leaders to management research, Carleone draws broadly to showcase the universal applicability of the touchstones and how they enabled business turnarounds, facilitated smooth leadership transitions after acquisitions, and reversed the fortunes of a struggling subsidiary under his command.

Balancing profundity and wit, these principles form an indispensable leadership code for turbulent times. Both visionary and results-driven, The Touchstones of Leadership perfectly captures the essence of values-centered leadership. It provides a reliable compass for leaders across industries seeking to navigate obstacles and drive enduring success.
