Moral Intelligence – Enhancing business performance and leadership success.

Some highlights:

Moral intelligence – the mental capacity to determine how universal human principles should be applied to out values, goals and actions.
We are hardwired to be moral but often stray from the path.
Cultural relativism – everyone has their own morality based on their situation and culture.
Without a high degree of moral intelligence … we fall back into fighting to defend out views as best – and imposing them on others.
Components of moral intelligence: integrity, responsibility, compassion and forgiveness.

Worth a read if you are interesting in this sort of stuff.
