Proving true to Orla Scott's statement, "Purpose, people, and profit are not mutually exclusive," with Leading with Humanity: Marrying Profit with Purpose, Thomas Wellner offers readers a blueprint for building companies that never lose sight of their mission while adapting to contemporary demands in ways that allow their businesses to grow. Throughout his career, Wellner has been intent on establishing balance, meaning, and empathy in the companies he has had the pleasure of leading. Here he outlines the approaches that can help businesses be innovative and compassionate while consistently producing excellent results.
