Keywords:
women’s leadership; ethics of care; empathy; dialogue; humanistic management paradigm; social agency; emotional competence; philosophy of leadership; interpersonal communication; value-oriented governance.Abstract
The article is devoted to the philosophical and ethical analysis of women’s leadership through the categories of care, empathy, and dialogue, which are examined as key elements of a humanistically oriented model of governance. It is demonstrated that the female leadership style is grounded in the recognition of the uniqueness of human experience, respect for the emotional dimension of interaction, and the creation of trust-based communication. The ethical categories of care, empathy, and dialogue are presented as a value foundation that ensures the stability, adaptability, and moral sensitivity of contemporary managerial practices. The study reveals that women’s leadership fosters the development of inclusive and socially responsible forms of governance, which is particularly important in the context of global social transformations.
