Leadership, Vision, Values and Systemic Wisdom

Abstract

Organizational effectiveness depends upon a capacity to build and maintain an identity congruent with environmental realities. Much recent literature on leadership insists upon the leader as holder of vision and values. Here, this literature is reviewed and is seen to create problems for the leaders themselves, for other persons in organizations and for the organizations. Argues for a synthesis of values and vision with the need for systemic wisdom, in which leadership is a form of service.
