Leadership and Ethical Development: Balancing Light and Shadow
LEADERSHIP AND ETHICAL DEVELOPMENT: BALANCING LIGHT AND SHADOW Benyamin M. Lichtenstein, Beverly A. Smith, and William R. Torbert A&stract: What makes a leader ethical? This paper critically examines the answer given by developmental theory, which argues that individuals can develop throu^ cumulative stages of ethical orientation and behavior (e.g. Hobbesian, Kantian, Rawlsian), such that leaders at later develop- mental stages (of whom there are empirically very few today) are more ethical. By contrast to a simple progressive model of ethical develop- ment, this paper shows that each developmental stage has both positive (light) and negative (shadow) aspects, which affect the ethical behaviors of leaders at that stage It also explores an unexpected result: later stage leaders can have more significantly negative effects than earlier stage leadership. Introduction hat makes a leader ethical? One answer to this question can be found in Wconstructive-developmental theory, which argues that individuals de- velop through cumulative stages that can be distinguished in terms of their epistemological assumptions, in terms of the behavior associated with each "worldview," and in terms of the ethical orientation of a person at that stage (Alexander et.al., 1990; Kegan, 1982; Kohlberg, 1981; Souvaine, Lahey & Kegan, 1990). Developmental theory has been successfully applied to organiza- tional settings and has illuminated the evolution of managers (Fisher, Merron & Torbert, 1987), leaders (Torbert 1989, 1994b; Fisher & Torbert, 1992), and or- ganizations (Greiner, 1972; Quinn & Cameron, 1983; Torbert, 1987a). Further, Torbert (1991) has shown that successive stages of personal development have an ethical logic that closely parallels the socio-historical development of ethical philosophies during the modern era; that is, each sequential ethical theory from Hobbes to Rousseau to Kant to Rawls explicitly outlines a coherent worldview held implicitly by persons at successively later developmental stages. -
Collier Fruit Growers Newsletter May 2015
COLLIER FRUIT GROWERS NEWSLETTER MAY 2015 The May 18th Speaker is Dr. Doug “Dougbug” Caldwell . Doug Caldwell will present and discuss his concept of a Collier Fruit Initiative as well as current invasive pests of Southwest Florida. DougBug is the go-to person on insects in Collier County and has a heart to promote fruit trees comfortable with our unique climate. DougBug is the commercial horticulturalist, entomologist and certified arborist at the UF/IFAS Collier County extension office. Next Meeting is May 18 at the Golden Gate Community Center, 4701 Golden Gate Parkway 7:00 pm for the tasting table and 7:30 pm for the meeting/program. BURDS’ NEST OF INFORMATION THIS and THAT FOR MAY: MANGOS: Now that the mango season is commencing, LATE mangos should be selectively pruned, (yes - there will be fruit on the tree) so as to have fruit again next year. Selectively pruning, so as not to lose all the fruit. If late mangos are pruned after the fruit is harvested, eg: late September or October, it raises the % chance of no fruit the next year. Late mangos are Keitt, Neelum, Palmer, Beverly, Wise, Cryder & Zillate Early mangos – Rosigold, Lemon Saigon, Glen, Manilita & Florigon, to name just a few! When the fruit has been harvested, fertilize with 0-0-18. This is recommended because of the minors in the formulae. Fertilizing with nitrogen will cause ‘jelly seed’ and poor quality fruit. Also, spray with micro nutrients just before the new growth has hardened off.

Although the fruit is widely studied, few works focus other vegetal materials, which could be Metabolic profiling excellent sources of metabolites with potential application in several industries. Additionally, some M. indica Antioxidant varieties remain unstudied. The aim of this work was to explore for the first time the chemical composition and Antidiabetic the biological properties of aqueous extracts from M. indica var. Nunkourouni leaf and stem bark. Malic and Cytotoxic quinic acids were the most abundant organic acids. Mangiferin and gallic acid were the main phenolics in stem bark and leaves, respectively. A concentration-dependent activity was noticed against several reactive species, stem bark displaying stronger antioxidant capacity. The two materials also inhibit α-glucosidase and α-amylase, leaves being more potent. The cytotoxic effects on AGS cells were also approached, leaves being the most active material. -
Reminiscences of Early Plant Introduction Work in South Florida
Proc. Fla. State Hort. Soc. 51:11-33. 1938. REMINISCENCES OF EARLY PLANT INTRODUCTION WORK IN SOUTH FLORIDA DR. DAVID FAIRCHILD Coconut Grove To look back fifty years and put into words anything but tiny pictures of one's life is almost an impossible undertaking. The difficulty of the task is not, as I once thought it would be, made lighter by accumulations of written notes and photographs. Here in The Kampong the shelves are filled with albums and travel reports dating back to the earliest days of my visits to Florida. Hundreds of tiny red note books record the events of each week. The printed Inventories of Plant Introductions cover an entire shelf and in them I can find the stories of over 100,000 shipments of seeds or plants which since 1898 have come into America to contribute their part towards the making of a different agriculture from that of the Old World which traces its history back to the men and women of the Stone Age. What he was like we do not exactly know—the man and his wife who came from somewhere across the land bridge which connected Asia and America, but we do know that he brought with him his dog, for dog skeletons are mingled with his own in the caves and other remains of his early occupancy of this continent. He was a hunter. That he did not bring seeds of any cultivated plants is probable, for when Columbus landed there were nowhere to be found cultivated crops such as had come down through the ages of European history and were the basis of European cultures such as rice, wheat, barley, etc. -

Torbert University ofBath / Boston College We offer an epistemological basis for action research, in order to increase the validity, the practical significance, and the transformational potential of social science. We start by outlining some ofthe paradigmatic issues which underlie action research, arguing for a "turn to action» which will comple ment the linguistic turn in the social sciences. Four key dimensions ofan action science are discussed: the primacy ofthe practical, the centrality of participation, the requirement for experiential grounding, and the impor tance ofnormative, analogical theory. Three broad strategies for action research are suggested: first-person research/practice addresses the ability of a person to foster an inquiring approach to his or her own life; second-per son research/practice engages a face-to-face group in collaborative inquiry; third-person research/practice asks how we can establish inquiring commu nities which reach beyond the immediate group to engage with whole orga nizations, communities and countries. The article argues that a transforma tional science needs to integrate first- second- and third-person voices in ways that increase the validity ofthe knowledge we use in our moment-to moment living, that increase the effectiveness ofour actions in real-time, and that remain open to unexpected transformation when our taken-for-granted assumptions, strategies, and habits are appropriately challenged.
