About this listen

There is no higher praise we can give people than to say they have good character. But what does this mean, really? What makes this quality so essential to achieving personal success and fulfillment? More importantly, how can we build our own character and live more satisfying lives? Reflecting society's diversity, the contributors to this unique collection of essays speak from various cultural and professional backgrounds to share their observations on living with integrity, honesty, and compassion. From Dan Rather of CBS to author Arianna Huffington and sports commentator John Naber, the contributors explore how character and ethics shape our destinies. Additional contributors include Warren Bennis, Stephen L. Carter, Steven R. Covey, Alan M. Dershowitz, and Marianne Williamson. Their stories will inspire listeners to explore character as a means of building better personal lives and a better world.
