- Abstract:
The values-based leadership traits of trust, integrity, and people-orientation are critical to success in the construction industry. The research demonstrates a strong correlation between values-based leadership concepts, values, skills, and sound ethical conduct as critical performance components in the astute managing of constructed facilities projects. The results of the mixed methods research (quantitative and qualitative) support the main question addressed in the study, which is “Can the application of values-based leadership skills, values and concepts improve the processes of project management, especially within the construction industry?” The suitability of values-based leadership for improving the business partnerships within the construction industry (hypothesis), and the applicability of this approach to the leading of constructed facilities programs from concept through completion are shown.
