“Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.——波特·斯图尔特

Ethical leadership demonstrates work for the common good. Ethical leaders respect beliefs, values, rights and dignity of all.

Characteristics of Ethical Leaders

  • Fair and just – Treats everyone equally
  • Respect for others – Values contributions of others and cares for all
  • Honest and loyal – Builds trust by being honest and loyal to followers
  • Humane – Treats everyone with kindness

道德决策

  • Would you do it in front of your community members, children, spouse or parents?
  • Would you do it if it was going to be on the front page of the newspaper?
  • Would you want it done to you? Do you need to rationalize it to justify it? Are you a “walking defense mechanism”?
  •  Often times individuals make rationalizations to justify unethical behavior such as:
    • It’s ethical as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone.
    • I’ve got it coming; they owe me.
    • 这是一个很好的理由.
    • If it’s necessary, it’s ethical.
    • I’m just fighting fire with fire.
    • 其他人都在这么做.
