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 second
edition addresses this scarcity of resources for training
ethical leaders, providing a primer of several ethical
frameworks accompanied by extended examples to help inform
decision-making. It also addresses several leadership models
that claim an ethical component. The new edition
also includes new chapters on the ethics of care and toxic
leadership, and new case studies for all chapters. By
providing a consistent case analysis based on the Five Components
of Leadership Model, readers benefit from a comprehensive approach
to understanding 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 bene?t 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 bene?t by having all of 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.

Laozi, Marx, the Buddha, Ibsen, Machiavelli - these are just a few
of the world's great thinkers who have weighed in on the subject of
leadership over the centuries. Yet the contemporary student of
leadership often overlooks many of these names in favor of more
recent theorists hailing from the social sciences. Understanding
Leadership: An Arts and Humanities Perspective takes a different
angle, employing the works of the great philosophers, authors, and
artists found in world civilization and presenting an arts and
humanities perspective on the study of leadership. The authors
build their conceptual framework using their Five Components of
Leadership Model, which recognizes the leader, the followers, the
goal, the context, and the cultural values and norms that make up
the leadership process. Supporting the text are a wealth of case
studies that reflect on works such as Ayn Rand's novella Anthem,
Eugene Delacroix's painting Liberty Leading the People, Charlie
Chaplin's film Modern Times, Athol Fugard's play "Master Harold" .
. . and the boys, Laozi's poetic work Dao De Jing, and Antonin
Dvorak's New World Symphony. The authors also introduce studies
from various world cultures to emphasize the role that cultural
values and norms play in leadership. This illuminating framework
promotes the multidimensional thinking that is necessary for
understanding and problem-solving in a complex world. Understanding
Leadership: An Arts and Humanities Perspective will be a valuable
resource for both undergraduate and postgraduate leadership
students, while leadership professionals will also appreciate the
book's unique liberal arts and cultural approach.
