Morality forms such as authentic and ethical leadership have seen flow in interest in the current century. This has led to the propagation of moral leadership resulting in an empirical overlap and theoretical ambiguity. The author’s integrative analysis of this article shows a connection with philosophical morality which provides a framework used for differentiating various moral contents (Lemoine, G. J., et al 2019). Therefore, the main topic the author addresses is how morality impacts leadership by describing three forms of moral leadership. 
The author addresses several major points and criticism of ethical, servant, and authentic moral forms of leadership. He states that condemnations of leadership have been there all through and it is because of perceived overlapping constructs, inadequate theoretical developments, redundant results, and doubtful measurements. The author also poses a question on whether scholarly articles repeat the same mistake done before. There exists conflict between several styles to moral leadership as highlighted by the connection between each style. This review also clarifies points of differentiation and integration between moral styles to leadership and describes paths to improve future research works that inform the entire leadership sphere and build complementary knowledge but not redundant knowledge concerning moral leadership (Lemoine, G. J., et al 2019).
The author cited common theories that describe empirical similarities between ethical, servant, and authentic leadership. Common theories describe the relationship between outcomes and each moral form of leadership. These theories include Social exchange theory, Self-determination theory, Social learning theory, Social cognitive theory, and social identity theory (Lemoine, G. J., et al 2019). Social learning and social exchange theories explain the impacts of each moral leadership form and they jointly account for about three-quarters of the research that guides theoretical perspective. Social identity theory, social cognitive theory, and self-determination theory point at the theoretical unity of moral approaches. All these theoretical approaches have resulted in setting up of a unit of research which contains empirical differences and similarities since they all revolve around similar groups of mediating c...
