ZAPATA DOMINGUEZ, Álvaro. The Way of Being Cynical of the Leaders. cuad.adm. [online]. 2009, n.41, pp.81-92. ISSN 0120-4645.

Bédard (1995, 2002), has identified three manners of being, that she designates as the “Way of being mythical”, the “Way of being systematic”, and the “Way of being pragmatic”. A fourth way of being, the “Way of being relational” has been proposed by Alain Chanlat (1995). These ways of being, are for the authors, the manifestation of big trends in Western thought. In this context, in the present article, the “Way of being cynical” of the leaders is developed. The fundamental values that distinguish the cynicism are: resistance, impassivity and evil.

Keywords : Manners of Being; cynicism; Way of Being cynical; leaders.
