Rezensionen

"That ethical and moral leadership is important cannot be emphasized enough, especially in a time that intersubjective truths and facts are drowned out by lies, conspiracy theories, and misinformation. In his new book, Ethical Public Leadership, Stephen King offers a conceptual framework that is constructed around the triad of virtue, rule-based, and consequentialist ethics. He deftly explores the secular and spiritual sources of ethics and morality for public, nonprofit, and faith-based actors."

Jos C. N. Raadschelders, Professor, John Glenn College of Public Affairs, Ohio State University, USA, and Affiliated Professor, University of Leiden, the Netherlands

"Stephen King's analysis regarding the state of leadership today is sorely needed. Good leadership is ethical and moral, yet too much of the focus today is leadership literature that is all too anecdotal, unsystematic, and offers a psychological quick fix. Dr. King's book lays out a systematic, comprehensive, and dynamic approach, presenting good leadership as embedded within ethics and morals. It should be considered a primer for aiding public and non-profit leaders to think about how and why to integrate morals and ethics throughout their efforts."

Bradley Chilton, Professor, Department of Political Science & Public Administration, University of Texas at El Paso, USA

"In Ethical Public Leadership, Stephen King finds the balance between the scholarly and the practical. Noting we are in a leadership crisis; Dr. King takes us on a journey of understanding the moral implications-and why we truly need leaders who are willing to be transformed to change the world. Reading this book will encourage you, confirming that ethical and moral leaders are the true heroes we have been looking for all along."

Kathleen Patterson, Professor of Leadership Studies, School of Business & Leadership, Regent University, USA
