Prof Steve Kempster has dedicated his academic career to exploring leadership learning, purposes of leadership and social impact of leadership. In his latest publication “Good dividends: Responsible leadership of business purpose”, Steve proposes a holistic appraisal of our organisations providing a path towards good growth. We challenge Steve on what is “good” and learn about the importance of stewardship in place where we do business . We strongly recommend you watch the Pink Floyd Us and Them song video to appreciate Steve’s imminent call for action.
