Abstract The rapid advances in technology and the globalization of the economy have led corporate leaders to invest heavily in virtual teams to increase their global coverage.

At the heart of authentic leadership is the concept of ethicality. The concept of authenticity may contribute to the transformational leadership paradigm, producing an ideal form of leadership.

Abstract:
Senior leaders in state government public sector agencies must manage employee performance to ensure quality services to the citizens they serve.
