Dishonesty and lack of integrity are also delved into, showing how these behaviors can destroy trust and hard-built reputations.



The absence of empathy and consideration is another crucial issue addressed, demonstrating how these elements can affect employee morale and engagement. The book examines the impact of a toxic work environment and high staff turnover, revealing how these factors can be symptoms of ineffective leadership. The book also discusses talent loss and how a leader can create an environment that not only retains but also attracts the best and brightest.
