Today, managers, politicians, educators, and healthcare providers
are highly skilled technicians who navigate modern systems.
However, followers seek more than know-how; they desire moral
leadership. Even leaders equipped with skills must make difficult
ethical choices. This book connects philosophy to leadership by
examining three representative texts from the history of
philosophy: Plato's Republic, Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, and
Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince. The leadership ideas contained in
each one of these philosopher's works were not only pioneering for
their age but continue to be relevant today because they provide
insight into the enduring questions of leadership. The book
demonstrates the timeliness of the classical works by applying
these philosophical approaches to historical and contemporary
cases. This book is ideal for readers who are acquainted with
philosophy and those who are uninitiated. The connections made
between philosophy, leadership literature, and real-life leaders
enable readers to appreciate how deeper reflection into the themes
of leadership might merit scholarly attention and bear witness to
the close union between the philosophy of leadership and the real
world.
