Together Bennis, Goleman, and O'Toole explore why thecontainment of truth is the dearest held value of far too manyorganizations and suggest practical ways that organizations, theirleaders, their members, and their boards can achieve openness.After years of dedicating themselves to research and theory, atfirst separately, and now jointly, these three leadership giantsreveal the multifaceted importance of candor and show what promotestransparency and what hinders it. They describe how leaders oftenstymie the flow of information and the structural impediments thatkeep information from getting where it needs to go. This vitalresource is written for any organization-business,government, and nonprofit-that must achieve a culture ofcandor, truth, and transparency.
