Understanding Face And Shame: A Servant-Leadership And Face Management Model, Jiying Song Jan 2019

Understanding Face And Shame: A Servant-Leadership And Face Management Model, Jiying Song

Faculty Publications - George Fox Digital

Clergy can have a negative impact on churches and other individuals when they knowingly or unknowingly attempt to save face, that is, try to protect their standing or reputation. The desire to gain face and the fear of losing face and feeling ashamed will likely permeate clergy’s decision-making processes without even being noticed. This study explores the essence of face and face management and the relationship between face management and two characteristics of servant-leadership—awareness and healing—in both Chinese and American churches through the methodology of hermeneutic phenomenology. Prior to this study, to my knowledge, no hermeneutic phenomenological research of face …


Lean In, Alyssa Clark Jan 2019

Lean In, Alyssa Clark

Marriott Student Review

Gender inequality still exists in the workplace. In Lean In, Sheryl Sandberg explains that in order to attain greater gender equality, women must actively lean in to their work and make their voices heard. This article highlights Sandberg's primary messages and emphasizes practical steps that can be taken to give more balanced opportunities to both men and women. This message is intended to be a jumping point for conversations about the gendered experiences of women professionally and in the home.


The Empathetic Leader, Sarah Romney Jan 2019

The Empathetic Leader, Sarah Romney

Marriott Student Review

Research shows that “empathy” is an important quality in a leader and improves one’s ability to resolve group needs, obtain followers, perform prosocial behaviors, and get positive results. However, many business students do not recognize the value of empathy. Business schools can help improve this by teaching the importance of empathy and giving students the opportunity to develop it.


A Dilemma For Saulish Skepticism: Either Self-Defeating Or Not Even Skepticism, Samuel Director Jan 2019

A Dilemma For Saulish Skepticism: Either Self-Defeating Or Not Even Skepticism, Samuel Director

Jepson School of Leadership Studies articles, book chapters and other publications

Jennifer Saul argues that the evidence from the literature on implicit biases entails a form of skepticism. In this paper, I argue that Saul faces a dilemma: her argument is either self-defeating, or it does not yield a skeptical conclusion. For Saul, both results are unacceptable; thus, her argument fails.


The Hermeneutics Of Capability From Essence To Functions, From Functions To Capabilities: Preparing The Ontological Ground For An Ethics Inspired By The Capabilities Approach, RóIsíN Lally Jan 2019

The Hermeneutics Of Capability From Essence To Functions, From Functions To Capabilities: Preparing The Ontological Ground For An Ethics Inspired By The Capabilities Approach, RóIsíN Lally

Leadership Studies Faculty Scholarship

The goal of the World Report on Disability (WHO 2017) is for all people to live a life of health, comfort, and dignity. This minimal projection for human existence becomes problematic given that there are an estimated one billion people world-wide with reduced functionings or disabilities. This is further complicated by the fact that 80% of those with disabilities are living in low and middle income counties, suggesting a strong link between disability and poverty. (Banks, Kuper and Polack, 2017) Disability, therefore, is a complex intersectionality between health, poverty, and the environment. However, there are deeper considerations of philosophical anthropology …

Data include social network maps related to seeking expertise in teaching content and/or pedagogy, disaggregated by contacts at the school, district, state, nation, and international spheres of influence. Data also include transcripts of the activity and teacher discussions of networks in their own educational settings. This data article is related to the research article, "The use of visual network scales in …

Magpies Recognize Themselves In The Mirror1, Kelli Russell Agodon Jan 2019

Magpies Recognize Themselves In The Mirror1, Kelli Russell Agodon

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

The night sounds like a murder of magpies and we’re replacing our cabinet knobs because we can’t change the world, but we can change our hardware. America breaks my heart some days, and some days it breaks itself in two. I watched a woman have a breakdown in the mall today and when the security guard tried to help her what I could see was all of us peeking from her purse as she threw it across the floor into Forever 21. And yes, the walls felt like another way to hold us in and when she finally stopped crying, …

Servant-Leadership In Higher Education: A Look Through Students’ Eyes, Iqbal Alshammari, Florentina Halimi, Cathy Daniel, Meshari Thaher Alhusaini

Competing in the global marketplace requires organizations to promote their leaders as servant-leaders by replacing the old rules of traditional leadership with the ‘top of the leadership pyramid. By focusing on the growth and well-being of people and the communities to which they belong, servantleadership appears as a promising model to solve problems and promote personal development.

An Alternative Approach In Hospitality: Exploring The Leadership Philosophy Of A Successful Restauranteur Family, Scott Linklater, Kem Gambrell

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Hospitality in the United States has come a long way since the first recorded “inn” was established in 1607 by Spaniards in what is now modern-day Santa Fe, New Mexico (http://traveltips.usatoday.com/history-hotel-restaurantmanagement-54946.html). Since then, hotels and restaurants have popped up throughout the United States along trade routes and waterways, serving bourgeoning metropolitan centers such as New York City and locations along the Mississippi River.
