Ethical leadership: A model for intelligent organizations

Abstract

Intelligent organizations, from a teleological position, point towards knowledge-propelling entities, with broad thinking in order to adapt to computer advances with strategies that achieve the optimal cognitive development of their members, envisioning themselves as the man-technology-spirituality triad. Gómez (2021) argues that they are inspiring, since they emerge from the human ecosystem, they require strategies for their development such as: systemic thinking, personal domain, mental mechanisms, shared vision, team learning. A manager emerges as a model of moral authority, due to his personal and organizational values, charisma and influence to achieve behavioral changes in his followers, required for a more ethical society. This study intends to generate a theoretical corpus as a transformational tool for ethical leadership in smart organizations. It is the product of documentary hermeneusis supported by the episteme of complexity and theories of intelligent organizations. It is concluded that the leader of an intelligent organization acts as a catalyst, strategist and model. His hard work is to maintain his axioethic conduct in a technified and flawed society.
