The Learning Experience in a Value-Based Leadership
The Learning Experience in a Value-Based Leadership

Summary/Abstract: A growing number of empirical analysis identifies the need for talent retention, policies related to employee welfare, employee participation and employee satisfaction. Leaders are called to ensure the employee’s full contribution in accomplishing organizational goals and objectives, attaining occupational integration, as well as embodying career development programmers, all these improving the quality of life and the performance of the organization. We propose a research within the Romanian banking system, that studies the liaison between learning and knowledge-based society, on one hand, and a value based leadership, on the other hand. When establishing a synergy between values and life, several obstacles are removed, that stand in the way of talented people to perform at their very best. Therefore, successful employee engagement is achieved, leading to higher efficiency, and a more motivated and energized workforce. If today’s leaders set their own goals according to their highest values, then enormous rewards would surely follow, not only on personal level, but at an organizational level as well. In this framework, change becomes critical: discarding old values, learning new values and reinforcing new actions. Our study shows that success and happiness is not all about fame and wealth, instead personal conduct is the foundation of satisfaction, helping the employees who work in the Romanian banking system achieving that particular feeling of self-satisfaction when man has managed to reach the set of values that he has been pursuing.
