the willingness to take responsibility for
the larger institution and go for service instead of
control and self-interest (Block 1993). Leaders should
not only act as caretakers, but also act as role models
(Hernandez 2008). By setting the right example,
leaders can stimulate others to act in the common
interest. Stewardship is closely related to social
responsibility, loyalty, and team work. These constructs
all ‘‘represent a feeling of identification with
and sense of obligation to a common good that
includes the self but that stretches beyond one’s own
self-interest’’ (Peterson and Seligman 2004, p. 370).
