Abstract

This article aims to prove empirically that there are significant differences in the correlation that shows no leadership, transactional leadership and transformational leadership (MLQ) with the perceived lack of integrity of the leader (PLIS). It also sought to test whether there was an increased intensity of the relationships between each of the variables of leadership with integrity (T-test). The results show that both transformational leadership and transactional relationship are directly related to integrity. Also based on the empirical results of this investigation is concluded that the relationship of transformational leadership with integrity is stronger than the relationship of leadership with transactional integrity. And that transactional leadership is in turn associated with more integrity that no lead.

Summary

Integrity

Integrity is understood as a virtue that must be distinguished from moral actions. In other words, one can have integrity but can act immorally (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2007). According to Aristóteles (2004) a flourished man is the one who lives well and acts well In this sense, integrity is present in those acts that the human being performs. Role integrity precludes man and woman to having double morals, one at home and one in the workplace, for instance, and generating an inadmissible duplicity When one combines both definitions one arrives at the following: integrity means acting in accordance with what one thinks says and does, and these acts have their bases in a sense of respect to one’s human dignity and the human dignity of others. This is the way to enable the integration of the human being with himself/herself, with others and with the environment
