She is currently a professor at the Rutgers Business School - Newark and New Brunswick and is the director of the Institute for Ethical Leadership.

Biography[edit]

Born in Rochester, New York, Ciulla received a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Maryland, College Park. in 1973, a M.A. in philosophy from the University of Delaware in 1976 and later a Ph.D. from Temple University in 1985.

Her teaching career began in the philosophy department at La Salle University in 1975. In 1984, she went to Harvard Business School as the Harvard Postdoctoral Fellow in Business and Ethics. She then taught as a senior fellow at the Wharton School in 1986. In 1991, she became the Coston Family Chair in Leadership and Ethics at the Jepson School of Leadership Studies, at the University of Richmond. There she was one of the four faculty who designed the Jepson School and its curriculum.[2] She retired from the University of Richmond in 2016 as Professor Emerita and became Professor of Leadership Ethics[3] and the Director of the Institute for Ethical Leadership at Rutgers Business School.[1] She was president of the Society for Business Ethics (2009–2010) and International Society for Business Economics and Ethics (ISBEE) (2012–2016).[4]

She married René P. F. Kanters, a chemist and software developer, in 1990. They live in New York City.

Work[edit]

Ciulla's writing investigates the ethical challenges that are distinctive to leadership and stem from the demands of being both ethical and effective.[5] Some of her work uses history[6][7][8] and philosophy[9] to understand the ethical dynamics of leadership. She began developing the field of leadership ethics in 1995 with her article "Leadership Ethics: Mapping the Territory"[10] and published a textbook that used cases and primary philosophical sources to explore ethical questions in leadership.[11] To bring more scholars into the field, she published several edited collections,[12][13][14] and co-edited a reference work of primary sources in leadership ethics.[15]

Leadership ethics[edit]

Leadership ethics emerged as a field of study in around 1995.[10][16] Like business ethics, medical ethics, and other areas of applied ethics, it consists of a distinctive set of ethical challenges related to the role of leaders and their relationship with followers, and other stakeholders.[17][18] Leadership ethics is part of the literature in leadership studies and business ethics. However, it is also relevant to a number of other areas in professional ethics because professionals often take on the roles of leaders. Research in leadership ethics is interdisciplinary and the literature includes work by philosophers,[19][20] social scientists, and management scholars. It encompasses work on topics such as ethical leadership, toxic leadership,[21] power, trust, care, responsibility, along with a number of philosophical problems such as dirty hands and moral luck. Some of the literature draws on classical sources in philosophy such as Aristotle[22][23] and Kant,[24] to examine a variety of ethical questions related to leadership.
