Character is something intrinsic to us all; it forms and reveals who we are. Unbeknownst to many, character is foundational to our judgment, behavior, and leadership. As we tackle the grand challenges of our time, strength of character guides us to make better decisions, creates greater well-being, and contributes to human flourishing. For those who lead — whether in the public, private, not for profit, or education sectors — a greater understanding of character will challenge your thinking, inspire new ideas, and elevate your personal and professional performance.

Character: What Contemporary Leaders Can Teach Us about Building a More Just, Prosperous, and Sustainable Future provides an exceptional opportunity to become a better leader by applying the extraordinary yet down-to-earth insights from the authors’ accessible scholarship and interviews with truly distinguished leaders whose lessons on building stronger societies through character-based leadership are moving, powerful, and evergreen.

Industry Reviews

“As we walk through the world, we can start to feel a collective sense that something isn’t right — or worse: something is very wrong. In such moments, we can either resort to hopelessness, cynicism, and desperate self-preservation, or we can answer the call to courageously step into our fullest potential as human beings. Gerard Seijts and Kimberley Young Milani’s Character is the road map (and inspirational rocket fuel) for that journey. Its cutting-edge Leader Character Framework is built for the trenches, for the real-world challenges we face, for our everyday decision-making. Through the deeply inspirational conversations, we’re invited to consider a transformational possibility: I could do that too. Can you imagine a world in which every individual was acting with character as their compass? That’s the path to the future we want; that’s the path we need to be on.” — Peter Katz, JUNO–and Canadian Screen Award–nominated singer-songwriter, keynote speaker, and facilitator
