Authentic Leadership
Luthans and Avolio (2003) defined authentic leadership as: "a process that draws
from both positive psychological capacities and a highly developed organizational
context, which results in both greater self-awareness and self-regulated positive
behaviours on the part of leaders and associates, fostering positive self-
development" (p. 243).
“to thine own self be true” Zielinska, 2012,p.1

Real
o Idea that the person you present to the world is the person you are in
private

Values – family, work ethic, respect (self/others), making a difference – positive
impact
