“Few business leaders appreciate that respect is the foundation of any high-performing organization. With respectful leadership, all of the other leadership tools and techniques are effective; without it, they all break down. Gregg Ward is the guru of respect and he nails it in this powerful, engaging, and useful fable.”

John N. Kohut,

“Ward skillfully summarizes the importance of strong interpersonal relations – so often underappreciated – in the workplace. His story makes it crystal clear how taking the time to improve your skills at respect affects not only the bottom line, but also your staff’s loyalty, commitment, and enthusiasm.”

“The Respectful Leader is a refreshing antidote to what’s wrong in today’s rude, rushed, and me-first workplace, and a practical guide for those who want to create a civil and courteous culture.”

“This intriguing story clearly illuminates one of the biggest challenges in today’s workplace – the overwhelming lack of respect by people at all levels, and particularly by leaders. But it doesn’t have to be this way! Being respectful is simple – if you reach back and remember the lessons your parents taught you about how to treat other people, then you’re halfway there. Ward’s book provides a useful framework and easy-to-follow guidelines that will take you the rest of the way. The Respectful Leader will allow you to change your culture, change your company, and even change yourself.”
