Jim Carlough, accomplished business strategist and author, shares his six pillars of effective leadership, emphasizing integrity as the foundation that makes all other leadership qualities possible. Through compelling stories from his 30-year career, he demonstrates how integrity combined with empathy creates environments where people thrive even through difficult transitions.

• Integrity means staying on the center line of your ethical code, never straying too far left or right
• The current social media environment encourages people to "throw grenades and hide" without accountability
• When leading a team through job eliminations, Jim made three promises that resulted in the highest employee satisfaction scores across a 20,000-person company
• Leadership requires consistently asking yourself if your actions benefit you at the expense of others
• True leadership is developed through experience and reflection, not something people are born with
• The foundation of leadership is making others better, which ultimately makes you better
• Empathy and integrity work together to create trust, without which a leader cannot succeed
