Abstract
In this paper we propose an inclusive leadership style for public education administration, conceptualized as
distributed and ethical. First, the paper briefly refers to several prevailing features of public administration. We
argue that within this framework the emerging role of ethics, the importance of participation, and the shifts
in leadership practices, push for the development of an inclusive leadership style. Second, the paper reviews
proposed models for inclusive leadership, based on ethical and/or distributed elements. We conclude that
developing integrative frameworks, such as inclusive leadership, is an important update for leadership theories.
