Beyond Authority: Leadership Approaches From Classical to Contemporary.
Özet
The concept of ethical leadership plays a significant role in organizations, both from a managerial and moral perspective. When examining the historical development of leadership within strategic and social contexts, it becomes evident that leadership extends far beyond mere direction or the exercise of authority. Ethical leadership refers to an approach in which leaders align their decision-making, communication practices, behaviors, and efforts to shape organizational climate with ethical principles. In this regard, ethical leaders emphasize fundamental values such as honesty, trust, justice, and responsibility, thereby contributing not only to the personal development of employees but also to the overall success of their organizations. Within the scope of this study, the notions of leadership, ethics, ethical leadership, and the dimensions of ethical leadership are discussed in detail.
