King develops a more holistic and interdisciplinary understanding of ethical and moral leadership, required for more thoughtful theoretical and empirical research in the discipline. He points students of leadership to the time-honored values of ethics and morality, reestablishes the proper balance between bureaucracy and democracy, and helps reorient the ethical and moral purpose of public, nonprofit, and global institutions, ultimately providing hope for a better future of leadership. Ethical Public Leadership is required reading for students of public administration and nonprofit management, as well as for practicing public servants and nonprofit sector employees at all levels.
