Abstract

Ethical Leadership is a field of study that approaches management science along values, beyond utilitarianism, pure rationality and efficiency. Of particular importance is the reference in the subtitle of the volume “complex times”, which refers to the world around us that is changing faster and faster, slowly at a speed incomprehensible to human reason, to the maelstrom of new systems, solutions, technology and globalization, to what almost sucks us in like a vortex, where it is easy to lose points of reference, stability and security. In this environment, values are particularly important, as they provide a handle, orientate and ultimately show a way out of chaos. The authors of the volume explore the issue of ethical leadership in very different fields, with very different cultural and personal backgrounds, from America, Germany, Hungary or Africa to local communities, focusing on church leaders or university courses. The examples and cases can be interesting scientifically, but also from the perspective of our personal lives.
