Ethics of Leadership Report
Select a relevant and topical leadership issue from current news media that revolves around ethics and ethical decision-making. Use Tesla and Elon Musk as CEO. Research the situation and gather information in order to evaluate the leader(Elon Musk). Write an evaluation of a minimum of 1,000-1,250 words of the situation that addresses the following:
- The power bases used by the leader.
- The influence tactics used by the leader.
- The leadership style of the leader.
- The outcome (or potential outcome) of the situation.
Conclude by justifying whether you think this leader supports the values of conscious capitalism. Is the leader’s leadership style effective? Do you believe the leader acted ethically in the situation? Be sure to consider each tenet of conscious capitalism in your leader evaluation.
Next, imagine yourself as a practitioner of servant leadership. You have been appointed into the leadership role in this same circumstance. Explain how the situation would be different. Address the four criteria listed above in your discussion and incorporate the principles of conscious capitalism by explaining how your personal values and style are influenced by each tenet.
