Abstract: Dynamics in the business environment today is affecting every facet of human endeavor. The traditional leadership behavior has had its own share. Several researchers have written on sustainable development and corporate governance practices as a sure way of profitability and growth in a contemporary business organization. In this article, the author ignites the debate to transform public sector organizational leadership in the non-western economies to embrace the sustainability leadership approach. This is as a result of poor corporate governance and unethical corporate cultural practices and lack of stewardship theoretical approach that has brought seven domestic banks to their knees in Ghana in 2017 and 2018. The study further proposes a strong organizational culture that keeps values and ethical behavior as well as regulatory framework in checks for long-term survival and profitability in the public sector organizations that take away the vulnerability and unethical practices.
