Description:
Leadership is a process whereby an individual influences a group of individuals to achieve a common goal (Northouse, 2010). To be an ethical leader, then, is not a matter of following a few simple rules. The leader's responsibility is complex and multi-dimensional, rooted less in technical expertise than in simple human integrity. "To do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for everyone nor is it easy; wherefore goodness is both rare and laudable and noble." (Aristotle, Ethics II.9). This study quantitative study observed a multiple workplace that leaders practice business systems thinking and face ethical dilemmas in today’s workplace. The finding from this study revealed that ethical issues were given little attention in applying business systems thinking.
