The integrity of the servant leader / Dana Mesner-Andolšek and Robert Šumi.

By: Mesner-Andolšek, Dana [author.]Contributor(s): Šumi, Robert [author.]Material type: TextTextPublisher: London ; New York : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2017Description: viii, 203 pages ; 24 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781138212923; 113821292XSubject(s): Servant leadership | Servant leadershipDDC classification: 303.3/4 LOC classification: HM1261 | .M47 2017Summary: Ethical behaviour is one of the most important components of successful leadership yet this remains insufficiently investigated, especially from an interdisciplinary perspective. With the help of theory, empirical analysis and the relevant methodological apparatus, the authors fill the gap in the analysis of integrity and its impact on leadership and locate the significant factors which affect integrity in general. They develop and assess the forces that impact Servant Leadership style, as well as the ability to engender trust. As a starting point they make two assumptions: an important element in leading is the ethical dimension of leadership; the ratio of factors that affect leading and the servant leadership style is complex, but the integrity of leaders is the most important among them. The authors examine four integrated scientific areas: ethics and business ethics, human resource management and psychology and focus on the analysis of the process of leadership and the factors within that process of leading that influence its success and its ethical dimension.
