In Your Values-Based Legacy, the fourth book in Harry Kraemer's series on values-based leadership, you are invited on a journey of introspection and exploration to discover how you can help make the world a better place. As a former chairman and CEO of a multi-billion-dollar global healthcare company and now a professor of management and strategy at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, Kraemer shares first-hand accounts from dozens of individuals who are building legacies by tackling some of the planet's biggest challenges, including poverty, hunger, inequality, climate change, education, and leadership development. From local community projects to global initiatives, this book captures the essence of caring for others.
Your Values-Based Legacy is structured around the concept of legacy as a continuum. In Part 1, Honoring Our Past, you explore the influences in your life—from family to teachers and role models. In Part 2, Celebrating Our Present, you reflect on the causes, challenges, and opportunities that resonate with you, and hear from others who are making a positive impact. In Part 3, Creating Our Future, you consider how to make your legacy sustainable, such as by passing the torch to the next generation. Ready to make a difference? Start your journey towards building a meaningful legacy with Your Values-Based Legacy today.
