Abstract:
We are faced with pervasive anxiety about the ineffectiveness of many of our organizations, indeed all of
our institutions: business, educational, political, etc. The failure we see in our organizations and
institutions must be seen as a failure of leadership. In the long run successful organizations have ethical
leaders. The reverse is also true. In the long run unsuccessful organizations have unethical leaders.
