Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
How can leaders learn to embrace humility to foster collaboration? How can gratitude be cultivated to foster an environment of comradery? And how do leaders practice emotional intelligence in different situations to navigate conflicts and make rational decisions?
Blending classical literature and philosophy, this latest book from Professor Santiago Iniguez draws inspiration from Dante Alighieri's ""Purgatorio"" to explore how leaders can cultivate management virtues to counter the vices that hinder organizational success. Taking readers on a captivating journey, this book contains real-world anecdotes from business situations to offer valuable insights for modern-day leaders.
Beginning with an introduction to ""Purgatorio"", where the protagonist, guided by the poet Virgil -who in the book is featured as a Chatbot-, ascends the mountain of purgatory, overcoming various vices that symbolize the human condition. Each terrace of the mountain represents a specific vice, and as Dante confronts them, he purifies his soul to achieve the virtues needed to reach paradise. Drawing parallels from Dante's journey, the book delves into the realm of leadership and organizational management, where leaders are faced with their own set of vices in the form of workplace challenges. It explores:
- Pride vs. humility
- Envy vs. gratitude
- Wrath vs. patience
- Sloth vs. diligence
- Greed vs. generosity
- Gluttony and Lust vs. moderation
With real-life anecdotes from different industries, showcasing how leaders encountered and effectively countered these vices through the cultivation of management virtues, the book offers a unique and valuable perspective on leadership, decision making and organizational dynamics.
