Rent: On My Honor, I Will: The Journey to Integrity-Driven® Leadership

By Randy G. Pennington

Overview & Description

From business scandals to government corruption, to questionable choices and behavior, from those we hold up as examples; people have had enough! The country's recent history of integrity lapses has proven that our mutual success is in question unless leaders at all levels of every organization, community, and family get the integrity question correct. In this heralded work, award-winning author and corporate consultant Randy Pennington shows why integrity is crucial to every leader's success and how anyone who aspires to a position of leadership can accomplish that goal.

On My Honor, I Will presents a straightforward approach to earning and maintaining the trust and respect of others. Pennington builds on the timeless principles found in the venerated Scout Oath to show how to live with personal integrity; build strong relationships with interpersonal integrity; and build a foundation for success in a hyper-competitive world through organizational integrity. He combines his experience as a resource and advisor to executive leaders with examples from the best of America's distinguished leaders in business, government, and communities.

On My Honor, I Will features fascinating insights from well-known leaders like H. Ross Perot, Rex Tillerson, Judge William S. Sessions, Howard Putnam, and Jose Nino. You will meet such notables as Judi Phares, Bill Strickland, Anne Ream, and John Montgomery who are making a positive impact in their communities and businesses without being household names. And, you will see how organizations as diverse as ExxonMobil, Johnson and Johnson, and Gerber Baby Foods earn and maintain a reputation for integrity.

Here is a book that says a leader's true strength is not only in his or her position, intellect, or even determination. The leaders who inspire and challenge us to be and deliver our very best are distinguished by something much more powerful: a reputation for integrity, duty, service, honor, and doing what is right. It is an intangible that must be embraced and cultivated if we are to solve the challenges that are before us. If you want to become one of the legendary leaders, On My Honor, I Will is your starting point toward the journey to integrity-driven leadership.

"On My Honor" will go down as one of the best, most powerful and compelling books ever written on leadership!

Randy Pennington is a friend...but that shouldn't keep me from writing a review about a book I REALLY believe in! He's knocked it out of the park here. In this time of instant gratification, he reminds us that leadership should model integrity.

Here is a book that says a leader's true strength is not in his or her position, intellect, or determination. The leaders who inspire and challenge us to be and deliver our very best are distinguished by a reputation for duty, service, and honor.

I HIGHLY recommend this terrific book. It's a must-read!!
