Top academic scholars ponder the question of ethics as it pertains
to all aspects of leadership in business, government, and nonprofit
organizations. If leaders were defined by their influence on
history, Hitler would be on par with Gandhi, Lincoln, and Mother
Theresa. Yet most of us believe that our superiors have a
responsibility to exercise power with a purpose far greater than
any political agenda and a motive more noble than personal gain.
This thought-provoking collection of essays explores the ethical
challenges that leaders face in their relationships with followers,
the choices they make, and the ways in which they influence others.
Joanne B. Ciulla and her contributors examine the traits and
characteristics of top-tier leaders. She questions the assumption
that moral fortitude is an inherent part of being in charge;
analyzes the roles that charisma, morality, and delegation play in
the leadership paradigm; and considers whether individuals who want
to lead with integrity but are sometimes forced to get their hands
dirty for their constituents can be called "moral leaders." Readers
will gain an appreciation for how ethics is not an add-on to the
practice of leadership but rather an integral part of it-an element
that informs the very idea of what it means to lead and to lead
well. Includes contributions from philosophers, management
theorists, and industrial and organizational psychologists Reveals
the roles that deception and self-deception play in exercising
power Explains complex management models in easy-to-understand,
accessible language Examines leadership across a variety of
industries
