Sinossi

Who is John Locke
 
John Locke was an English philosopher and physician who is largely considered to be one of the most significant intellectuals of the Enlightenment period. He is also commonly referred to as the "father of liberalism." Locke, who is considered to be one of the earliest British empiricists and who followed in the footsteps of Francis Bacon, is also considered to be of similar significance to the philosophy of social contract. His contributions had a significant impact on the evolution of epistemology as well as historical political philosophy. The writings of this individual had an impact on the likes of Voltaire and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as a great number of Scottish Enlightenment intellectuals and the American Revolutionaries. The Declaration of Independence of the United States of America is a reflection of his contributions to liberal theory and classical republicanism. At the global level, Locke's political-legal concepts continue to exert a significant impact on the theory and practice of limited representative government, as well as on the safeguarding of fundamental rights and liberties in accordance with the rule of law.

    Trustworthy will reveal the benefits that organizations  enjoy when trustworthy behavior is practiced regularly and  consistently by their leaders. Drawing from examples from the 100  Best Companies to Work For, Amy Lyman, co-founder of the Great  Place to Work Institute, shows leaders and managers at all  levels why being trustworthy is such a powerful marker of  leadership and how they can engage in trustworthy behavior. Being  "trustworthy," she explains, means that a leader's behavior is  rooted in his or her commitment to the value of trust--not simply  an imitation of the practices of others.       Trustworthy will make the case that trust is not a  panacea: a successful organization needs a sense of purpose,  clearly defined products and services that meet a need, and  strategies and processes for getting products and services to  market. But when this occurs within the context of trust and  trustworthy behavior, the organization can be exponentially more  successful.  Trust is of increasing importance, particularly in the ongoing  crisis with respect to leaders' lapses in ethical behavior.We are  at a turning point in economic life and being trustworthy offers  leaders a strategy that is likely to bring them greater positive  recognition; greater acclaim as leaders; greater success in  business as marked by revenue growth, innovation and reputation;  and greater acclaim among employees as a person of integrity and  honor.
