Justice-Based Leadership (JBL) Principles

Definition and Philosophy

• Justice-Based Leadership (JBL) is a philosophy that aligns individual and group values, mission, actions, structures, and systems around a shared understanding of social and economic justice principles.

Key Components

• JBL encompasses concepts of servant leadership, transformational leadership, and principle-centered leadership.
• Servant-leadership aspects reflected in JBL: trust, appreciation, and empowerment of others.
• Transformational leadership components embodied in JBL: charisma or idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and consideration of the individual.
• Principle-centered leadership components: personal character, competence, and commitment to natural law principles.

Goals and Objectives

• The goal of JBL is to center all aspects of life on correct principles and for every person to develop a rich internal power and personal economic power through capital ownership.
• Empowerment of others, a fundamental objective of JBL, achieved when principles and practices of justice are understood and applied at all levels.

Justice-Based Management

• JBL is a key part of Justice-Based Management, recognizing the impact of direct capital ownership and private property rights on economic and political power and social and economic justice.

Leadership Challenges

• The challenge to justice-based leaders is to promote a culture that develops, enriches, and empowers each member of the group, strengthening the whole.
• Justice-based leadership drives a dynamic process that seeks to create structures, systems, and institutions that decentralize power, teach, empower, and inspire every person to become a justice-based leader.
