For better or for worse, values drive behaviour. As a term, “values” is often overused and has somewhat lost meaning, yet values (or virtues) and the moral courage to stand by them remain critical for leaders today. This conversation with Michael Lorimer, the CEO of a highly successful global FMCG, explores why values matter for the bottom line. He provides practical insights into how leaders can employ better judgement, discernment and ethical decision-making, with a real impact on culture.
