Abstract

The development of soft skills is highly relevant for a humanistic manager, for an inspirational leadership. However, MBAs around the world have not incorporated them as much as needed, which, in part, explain the global management crisis. Hence, in this chapter three top executives of two awarded companies were interviewed in order to know what skills they used to outperformed traditional management and obtain beyond excellent results. Once stated their soft skills they mastered, we compared them to a novel global initiative that is working in advancing the inner development—IDGs—in management and society. The results would give the reader elements to reflect and improve their management styles.
