Leadership and Virtue Ethics

Abstract

An analysis of the leadership challenges discussed in modern leadership studies suggests that a holistic Daoist model, based upon the five fundamental virtues of an ethical leader, offers a practical approach to ethical leadership in organizations. The Daoist model, potentially a complementary tool to the more positivist analytical approaches commonly taken in the Western leadership literature, provides a framework that helps to explain the dynamics of the ethical virtues required of adaptive leaders confronting change.
