If you want to fight individual deviance such as corruption and doping in sport: What leadership, governance, and culture might work in sport management?

In this peer review article for Scandinavian Sport Studies Forum, Petter Gottschalk asks the question of what might work best in sport management when the focus is on preventing, detecting, and correcting individual deviance, which is a negative phenomenon in sport as it refers to behaviors that go against and violate expectations, norms, values, as well as rules, regulations, and laws. While ethical and democratic leadership styles are normally recommended, sometimes dictatorial and narcissistic leadership styles are needed to fight deviance.
