“Gentile presents a strong—and sorely needed—case for improving
corporate culture.”—Publishers Weekly
Winner of the 2011 Gold Medal for Axiom Business Book Awards in the
Business Ethics category, given by Jenkins Group &

“The unique and critically important contribution of Giving Voice
to Values is that it moves us past the debate about whether we can
define a common set of values, to focus instead on a shared
conversation about just how to enact the values that we already
know, in our deepest selves, are absolutely essential. The book is
both an inspiration and a blueprint, and lays out the kind of
discussion I believe is required for business education and
business practice—in India and around the world.”—Nandan Nilekani,
author of Imagining India
“A wonderful guide to help us enter an era of responsibility and of
leadership based on values.”—Walter Isaacson, CEO, Aspen
Institute
“Mary Gentile’s Giving Voice to Values is a clarion call to the new
generation of leaders to put their values in practice in the
workplace. Its timely and thoughtful message is precisely what the
corporate world needs now.”—Bill George, executive fellow, Harvard
Business School, and former CEO, Medtronic
“Mary Gentile documents a fascinating tool to help us to be as
ethical as we strive to be. She highlights that rehearsing for
ethically challenging situations may allow us to develop a response
more in line with our ethical preferences than the knee jerk
responses that have led so many to make the wrong choice in
important situations. The ideas in the book are clever, original,
thoughtful and important.”—Max H. Bazerman, Straus Professor,
Harvard Business School
“Giving Voice to Values heralds a revolution in ethics education.
Gentile . . . wants to help you practice what to do when you know
something is unethical. It’s like a self-defense class for your
soul.”—Dan and Chip Heath, authors of Switch and Made to Stick
