142 Global Ethics for Leadership
The slogan of the Globethics.net’s Strategy 2016-2020 is ‘Values-
driven Leadership for Life and Sustainable Development’. One thing I
have learnt from my studies and in my life is that recognition of and a
deep respect for the value and meaning of human life and of non-human
life is a good place to start when seeking perspective. When you sit with
such a notion for a while it can lead to a groundswell of appreciation for
the vast wonder of the world and the universe that we are privileged to
occupy for our short span of years. Globethics.net’s core values are re-
sponsibility, sharing, respect, inclusion, justice/fairness and integrity. At
this juncture in the life of Globethics.net, as the baton is passed from the
Founder Christoph Stückelberger to his successor Obiora Ike as Execu-
tive Director, from Walter Fust to Christoph Stückelberger as President
and as the Globethics.net team and community grow it is my heartfelt
wish and hope that these values continue to be the life breath of our ef-
forts.
