Leadership, the Social Compact, and the Future of Work
In Person
Join us on April 24th for “Leadership, the Social Compact, and the Future of Work,” a conversation with national bestselling author James Rhee and Amanda Grappone. This event is hosted in partnership with the Center for Ethics in Society and the Gregory J. Grappone Humanities Institute.
In kindergarten, James Rhee received a toy red helicopter in gratitude for a simple act of generosity—sharing his lunch. Decades later, the lesson from that small gift led him to develop a human-centered framework for business and personal achievement that helped him overcome seemingly insurmountable hurdles and find unprecedented success.
Together, Grappone and Rhee will discuss key points from his book and share meaningful ways that leadership and kindness can impact the business world.
Amanda Grappone is a leading voice for car dealers and the auto industry. She was recognized as the 2023 Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce Business Leader of the Year.
James Rhee is an acclaimed investor and CEO. His book, red helicopter - a parable for our times (HarperOne; April 9) debuted as a National Bestseller, being #7 among all categories and #1 in non-fiction. Rhee is also the Johnson Chair of Entrepreneurship at Howard University, a Senior Lecturer at MIT Sloan and Duke Law, and a TED Speaker.
