James Madison And The Ethics Of Transformational Leadership, J. Thomas Wren
James Madison And The Ethics Of Transformational Leadership, J. Thomas Wren
Jepson School of Leadership Studies articles, book chapters and other publications
Transformational leadership has become one of the dominant paradigms of leadership studies since its fist articulation by James MacGregor Burns in 1978. In recent years, however, this formulation of leadership has come under criticism, to include the critique of its ethical implications.

While a new theory was not presented, a foundation for such a theory …

Everything happens in a millisecond: email. faxes, and virtual offices have become the norm for American and international business endeavors. Today's competitive environment demands intense improvement in productivity, quality, and response time. In order to keep pace with instant gratification …
