The world cries out for ethical leaders. We expect the best, but we
are often left profoundly disappointed. While leadership programs
may feature ethics as part of their curriculum, the approach is
often either simplistic or overly esoteric. This book addresses
this scarcity of resources for training ethical leaders by
providing a primer of several ethical frameworks accompanied by
extended examples to help inform decision-making. The text also
presents a number of leadership models that claim an ethical
component. By providing a consistent case analysis based on the
Five Components of Leadership Model, readers benefit from a uniform
approach to evaluating ethical leadership. By using the Five
Components of Leadership Model as a consistent point of reference,
McManus, Ward, and Perry offer readers a variety of insights on
ethical leadership. Conclusions include the importance of drawing
from multiple ethical and leadership perspectives, moving away from
exclusively leader-centric approaches to ethical leadership, the
importance of asking questions to maximize self-awareness, and
considering multiple points of view whenever addressing an ethical
conundrum. To connect 'ethical thinking' and 'ethical doing', the
text uses classroom-friendly framing questions, timelines, visual
models, summary tables, case studies, discussion questions, and
recommended resources for additional study. After reading the book,
students will benefit from a foundational understanding of theories
and models of both ethics and leadership, as well as a concrete
view of what these theories and models look like in practice.
Professors will benefit by having all these resources in one text,
viewed through the lens of the Five Components of Leadership Model.
Striving to be both comprehensive and approachable, this book is an
excellent resource for upper-level students studying leadership,
especially those who are new to philosophy or ethics. It is
inclusive enough to serve as a primary text or as a supplement for
a well-rounded ethics or leadership course. Contributors include:
