Leaders have a fundamental role within the organizations and the search for good leaders and how they are capable to manage their teams effectively remains until today. Previous research on leadership highlighted the importance of the topic regarding two aspects: (1) the characteristics of the leader and (2) the process of leadership itself.
In this study we analyze the concept of integrity in the context of leadership, namely in the Servant Leadership theory. Integrity or behavioral integrity is one of the core dimensions in the leadership theories. The purpose of this dissertation is to demonstrate that integrity dimension should be a characteristic of leaders.
The literature review points out that this dimension is an indispensable characteristic for leaders. There is a considerable amount of evidence which suggest that a leader who display with integrity will generate trust on he/her team and will also generate other positive outcomes, such as: commitment, individual and team performance and team work.
