Learning Activity #1 Ethical Organizational Decision Making Can be Encouraged

In this activity state how you would define a leader and what the leader’s role is in shaping the ethical environment of a company. Explore what you believe are the steps to creating an ethical organizational culture and the barriers that can prevent the creation of that culture. Examine the role of a board of directors in creating and maintaining the ethics of a corporation and what the personal characteristics of those board members are that determine ethics in the corporation. State whether you feel that society has a right to expect its leaders to be more ethical and moral than the people that they lead and justify your position.
