They explore the lightning-rod concept of \"transparency\"-which has fast become the buzzword not only in business and corporate settings but in government and the social sector as well. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTogether Bennis, Goleman, and O'Toole explore why the containment of truth is the dearest held value of far too many organizations and suggest practical ways that organizations, their leaders, their members, and their boards can achieve openness. After years of dedicating themselves to research and theory, at first separately, and now jointly, these three leadership giants reveal the multifaceted importance of candor and show what promotes transparency and what hinders it. They describe how leaders often stymie the flow of information and the structural impediments that keep information from getting where it needs to go. This vital resource is written for any organization-business, government, and nonprofit-that must achieve a culture of candor, truth, and transparency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eTransparency\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter watching so many American presidents derailed by a culture of secrecy--Richard Nixon and George W.
