21세기의 새로운 지도자상 = A New Leadership Model for the 21st Century

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Just one year towards the 21st Century, we have a very strong sense of social crisis in every social aspect of life. It is because we do not have proper leadership to overcome this social crisis and provide for a reasonable path out of the deadlock. The current crisis of social degeneration and dehumanization cast a severely gloomy prospect for the future of Korea and Global Society. Lest this situatikon should continue in the 21st Century, the need for a new leadership is acute.
What should the leadership for the 21st Century be? A true leader who can ovecome the current crisis and propose a vision for the progress of the history of humanity should be one who has the vision of the method to develop morality and humanity. He should have a sense of responsibility and determination to be a true leadr for the uncertain future of the
21st Century with the appropriate skill and knowledge to realize the blueprint for a better future.
The true leader in the 21st Century should no confine his concern to his own country, but extend his efforts to solve social pathology of the Global Society. He should specify the direction of the future society and plant the seeds of hope for the restoration of morality and humanity in the mind of people in this era.
True leaders should exert ceaseless efforts to create a better society of the 21st Century in which humanity will have more developed culture and environment than those of the 20th Century, Mr. Robert Bundy put a specifie importance on, among others, two characteristics of movement for the creation of a desirable future. The ormer is the belief that we cannot predict the future, but make all research-efforts resulting in practical alternatives for the future.
Most activists of Futures Movement like Robert Bundy argue that world society faces a great transformation. This transformation arouses attention from the world society in the sense that it may bring ambivalent result, destructive and constructive, to the future of the whole human society.
Then, what kind of society should we create to prevent the overall destruction of the Global Society? What is the practical way to do so? Seemingly, the answer depends on the creation of the leadership model for the 21st Century, education for leadership and leaders' successful activity.
This paper begins with a comprehensive analysis on the social and cultural aspects of the 20th Century. Based on the analysis on the social patholgy of the 20th Century, this paper presents alternatives for the contemporary social problems, suggestina a new leadership model based on the Brighter Society Movement which is the spirit of the GCS International. Conclusively, this paper suggests a creative aspect of life for Korea and the Global Society for the 21st Century through the discussion on the role and philosophy of leaders in the age of culture, the 21st Century.
