Routledge Leadership, Gender and Ethics - Embodied Reason

Explore a new perspective on leadership through the lens of gender and ethics. This book from the Routledge Studies in Leadership Research series offers a unique method for studying how leadership is practiced and how it can be changed. It focuses on contemporary issues by examining the masculinity found in leadership roles and how embodied reasoning can disrupt traditional patterns. The text presents a central argument regarding how masculine leadership often elevates rationality at the expense of the body and feelings. This imbalance can lead to the sanctioning of unethical behavior in professional environments. By investigating these connections, the book provides a framework for understanding the relationship between gendered identities and ethical decision-making. This work is an essential resource for those interested in the sociology of leadership and the impact of gender on organizational behavior. It provides a foundation for rethinking how leaders interact with their roles and their teams through a more embodied approach.
