There is a clear trend towards emphasizing positive aspects of organizational behaviour: transparency, corporate responsibility, spirituality and management, servant leadership. Servant leadership is to lead with service above self and for others’ benefit. Popular press accounts show that CEOs with servant leadership qualities are able to lead their corporations to prosperity through practising high levels of corporate and individual morality and empowering employees. Yet evidence of the servant leader phenomenon is still largely anecdotal. After examining the general literature on ethical leadership in organizations, we focused on ethical and other components of corporate servant leadership, based on our detailed empirical study of servant leaders in Australian organizations.engWith permission of the license/copyright holderleadershipcorporationsresponsibilityEconomic ethicsBusiness ethicsEthics of economic systemsLabour/professional ethicsConference proceedings
