Ahlâki Liderlik ve Bir Yansıması Olan Erdemli Liderlik

Günümüzde liderliğin birçok farklı yönü araştırılmaktadır. Bu çalışmalarda özellikle liderliğin ahlâki yönüne vurgu yapılmaktadır. Nitekim liderlik sürecinin başarılı olmasının temelinde liderlerin ahlâk anlayışı etkili olmaktadır. Liderin takipçileri üzerinde güven oluşturması ahlâki davranışlar sergilemesiyle mümkün olmaktadır. Literatürde liderlerin ahlâki davranış ve tutumları ahlâki liderlik çalışmalarında incelenmektedir. Bu çalışmada ahlâki liderlik ile birlikte liderliğin başka bir yönü olan erdemli liderlik kavramı incelenmiştir. Erdemli liderlik, Aristoteles’in erdem teorisine dayanan bir liderlik yaklaşımıdır. Erdem teorisine göre erdem, bireylerin davranışlarını iyiye yönlendiren ahlâki değerleri ifade etmektedir. Bu bakımdan erdemli liderlik, liderlerin erdemli davranışlar sergilediği bir süreçtir. Literatürde ise bu liderlik yaklaşımına yönelik tanımlayıcı ve açıklayıcı çalışmaların yetersiz olduğu görülmektedir. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmada erdemli liderlik yaklaşımı tartışılmış ve literatürdeki eksiklikler giderilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Ethics Leadership and Virtuous Leadership with a reflection

Many different aspects of leadership are currently being explored. In these studies, especially the moral aspect of leadership is emphasized. As a matter of fact, the moral understanding of the leaders is effective on the basis of the success of the leadership process. It is possible for a leader to build trust on his followers by displaying moral behavior. In the literature, the moral behavior and attitudes of leaders are examined in moral leadership studies. In this study, along with moral leadership, the concept of virtuous leadership, which is another aspect of leadership, is examined. Virtuous leadership is a leadership approach based on Aristotle's theory of virtue. According to virtue theory, virtue refers to the moral values that direct the behavior of individuals to the good. In this respect, virtuous leadership is a process in which leaders display virtuous behavior. In the literature, it is seen that descriptive and explanatory studies on this leadership approach are insufficient. Therefore, in this study, virtuous leadership approach was discussed and the shortcomings in the literature were tried to be eliminated.
