Praise for THE ETHICAL IMPERATIVE

"Genuine leadership in any enterprise--military or civilian, public or private--will always be centered on people: answering their needs and providing them the tools to accomplish their tasks, thrive, and grow . . . It's an excellent read anchored by the indispensable understanding that compassion is not the absence of strength, but its apex."
--A.J. Harrison, Retired U.S. Army Judge Advocate, Author of Old Scores

"This powerful book reminds current and future leaders that the ethical option--not profit--should be the first and primary consideration. To have a brighter future for our society and posterity, leaders in the business community must redevelop their conscience, lead with a strong understanding of morality, and acknowledge the impacts their decisions have on society. Andrew's work helps fly us to a future we can all be proud of."
--Dr. James H. Stephenson, III, Board Member and Research Scientist

"Told in a unique, compelling, and thought-provoking manner, Andrew Cooper harnesses his corporate leadership and homespun wisdom to practical tools that will enhance readers' ability to make wise, people-centered decisions."
--Richard Fowler, Fox News Contributor

"The conscientious leader must be guided by clear and unwavering goals and objectives. Andrew has shown us a correct model of what tomorrow's successful leaders must bring to their duties in order to be an inspirational leader that not only gets maximum effort from the teams they lead, but to give maximum effort in leading their team."
--Honorable Jon Gray, Retired Judge, 16th Judicial Circuit of Missouri

"The Ethical Imperative is a must-read for any individual who yearns to make this world a better place for everyone. Andrew's call for the development of conscientious leaders who have the courage to focus on positions that are morally right and not simply profit-driven is exactly what we need as we move into the future."
