For those who feel alone in a sea of ehtical dilemnas, this book will make you feel like you are in good company and not alone. I have worked hard to earn my way up the ladder, only to be struck down by those who made it by simply getting into the good 'ol boy club.

Ken Blannchard's book is the lighthouse in the fog of unethical practice and behavior. This book sheds light on the real value of ethics and that getting ahead at any cost is not the norm.

Ethics in the workplace is a practical and valiant 'goal', excuse me, 'road' to travel. I was amazed at how this book described my own workplace to a "T". This book inspired me to continue to travel the ethical road I held (and still hold) in high regard.

I have read many of Ken Blanchard's books and he uses the method to teach by using real world scenarios. This particular book reads fast, but the concepts stay with you.

Simply one of the best (if not THE best), most enjoyable, and most entertaining books on ethics, morality, character, and leadership.

This short and easy to read masterpiece by two of the most influential business and spiritual thinkers of our time should be required reading for all managers and leaders in any organization - business, family, government, military, etc. The stories and situations used to teach the many commonsense (but unfortunately not common practice) lessons are real and recognizable to everyone. The power and wisdom behind the three "Ethics Check" questions and the "Five P's of Ethical Power" for individuals and organizations are priceless.

If you ever wondered why some people and organizations make such a big deal about ethics, read this book and you will wonder why more people and organizations do not make ethics their top priority.

I have just finished reading "The Power of Ethical Management," and I thought it was well written. In the past few weeks I have read several other books on business ethics and this one is my favorite. It is short and exact with great details on how to improve your corporation as well as yourself. This book not only can be applied to the work place but in your life at home, family, friends, and children. This book has helped me greatly!

I have found this book, while easily readable, carries a lot of weight because of its emphasis on personal value systems and how they apply to our professional life. I appreciate the storyline and can easily apply his words to my own life.

This book will be used as a resource in our leadership library. Excellent, short, to the point leadership book.

An easy read with great wisdom. Every individual should read this book, even the nominal employee as it has insight regarding moral decision-making in and out of the workplace.

I made three orders through Amazon.com this year had no problem at all. Knock on wood as the saying goes.

I always love books that take a very boring but important subject and make it interesting and fun to read. This is exactly what the author did with this book.

This book describes every workplace! Reading this book is sure to make ethics feel like you are looking at a mannekin and the eyes are following you no matter which direction you are looking from. Learn about the 5P's of ethical management and how they affect all of our actions.

"Ethical behavior is related to self-esteem. People who feel good about themselves have what it takes to withstand outside pressure and to do what is right rather than do what is merely expedient, popular, or lucrative. Ethical managers are winning managers." This is the kind of journey you are going to take when reading this excellent book.

"Pride in organizations is a reflection of how people feel about the organization they work for, People's negative feelings about their organization are at the root of unethical behavior."

Find out how to put together your own "ethics check" questions so no matter what the outcome you will be able to withstand the scrutiny of the media.

Basic college text. I have read several of Kenneth Blanchard's books. He is short and to the point. You have got to like that in college.
