| Résumé : |
Our qualitative comparative study explores the authority and the leadership styles of four religious leaders in a managerial perspective : the minister, the imam, the priest and the rabbi. Our in-depth interviews aim to better comprehend the similarities and the differences related to their authority and leadership styles within their organization, compared to the manager on one hand, and the influence of the religion on these formal and informal exercises of power, on the other hand. The insights reveal that the four religious headers prefer to use leadership rather than formal authority to lead their organization. Moreover, these first results show that the dominant leadership style shared in common by the four religious leaders, is characterized by the servant leadership model (Belet, 2013). Differences in the formal exercise of power in terms of authority were observed, mainly due to the specific organizational doctrine differences within the four religions. The use of formal authority is rare because it is subordinated to God’s Authority. |
