From the Paper
"Avoiding negative leadership qualities that can arise during any transformational change, such as competitive urges to sully other managers' reputations, is best accomplished by adhering to the basic principles of the Full Range Leadership Model (FRL) as described by Avolio (par.5): "One key aspect that differentiates the FRL model from other models is that leadership development involves building leaders of higher moral character." This development of moral character on the part of leaders engenders to the FRL leadership style an ethically centered decision-making process upon which all employees, managers and employees alike, can rely on to be both sound in judgment and character. The result of such transformational leadership strategies is an ethically centered leader who is unafraid to make decisions as much on principle as on the underlying business case."

Abstract
This paper discusses the role of business ethics across the multinational enterprise. It discusses the role of ethics in the executive decision making process and offers several recent examples of ethical failings in multinational enterprises. The result of this examination concludes that ethic decision making begins with, the appointment of ethical people.
From the Paper
"The preponderance of evidence seems to support that ethical decision making on the part of international business organizations tends to provide positive financial results in the long term. The inverse is true as well in that short term unethical decision making tends to produce better financial results. This is Occam's razor at its purist which postulates that the simplest explanation, especially in this case, is always sufficient. The complete lack of ethical decision making, within the last five years, has singularly led to a host of spectacular multinational enterprise (MNE) corporate implosions: "WorldCom, Adelphia, Global Crossing, Qwest, Tyco...These...ethical failures in...business...have taken a terrible toll. They have: destroyed some of the world's largest companies and hundreds of billions of dollars in shareholder value..."(Copeland, 2005, p.36)."

(Friedman, 2000) Ms. Gilbert uses her charisma when recruiting colleagues to work with her on various projects. Ms. Gilbert will continue to reflect and progress in her leadership plan. When she reflects, she will look at what has transpired and how others reacted. Then Ms. Gilbert can enhance her leadership plan by making it stronger and more effective."

From the Paper
"There is a constant debate: ?Are leaders born or are leader made?? Leadership skills can be developed?the qualities required in a leader can be learned. Bernard M. Bass states ?Leadership is one of the world?s oldest preoccupations.? (Wren, 1995) When individuals know and understand both their strengths and their weakness, their effectiveness as leaders is greater. The leadership quality most desired is the ability to have a vision and a dream. No leader will have followers if the followers do not believe in the leader?s mission. Strong leaders have a helpful and thoughtful personality. They are also very aware of their own strengths and weakness. The key to success in a career, and consequently in life, is to set attainable goals and work towards attaining these goals. Disciple and dedication is a necessity. A good leader knows how to generate enthusiasm and positive thinking within him or her self and how to broadcast it."

Abstract
This paper addresses the importance of assessing leadership needs of an organization when planning for a merger or acquisition. The psychological need of employees for strong leadership at this time, the change of direction for the organization and strategic vision are among the areas explored.
From the Paper
"A merger or acquisition is a major event for an organization and one that causes a significant amount of stress for employees and for the organization. At this time, it becomes especially important to address the leadership needs of the organization and ensure that effective leadership is provided that keeps both individual and organizational performance on track.
The first aspect to consider is the needs of employees and especially why employees require strong leadership during a merger. Milward offers information on one of the most important reasons why mergers are stressful, which is that the culture of an organization changes. As Milward says, ?culture represents people's collective attempts to bring order and predictability to daily organizational life. Culture gives people a sense of belonging, a sense of direction and a sense of meaningful contribution in pursuit of a cause.? (Milward, A. (2002). When Cultures Collide.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper briefly discusses a personal and professional structure of professional values and beliefs that are important for being a successful school leader. It looks at the tradition or ethical school from which those values and beliefs spring and discusses the ethical principles of a professional educational administration organization. The paper also discusses how the principles of that organization are comparable to the writer's own values. The paper contains appended original sources.
From the Paper
"It is often asked of prospective young teachers - or those who wish to school administrators - what their professional values and beliefs are. In my own case, I feel that one's personal and professional values should be one and the same. In other words, a teacher and/or administrator who strives to be honest and compassionate in the classroom and in the school environment should also strive to be honest and compassionate in his or her personal life, as well. With that in mind, I feel the following values and/or beliefs are integral to a person being a good citizen and a good teaching professional: honesty, empathy and conscientiousness, a willingness to consider new ideas and perspectives, a sense of duty, selflessness, and a commitment to excellence. If a member of the professional school community has all of these qualities, he or she will be both a strong person and a professional able to shape primary and secondary school students in positive ways. As a school leader, I want to make my school just the sort of place where the qualities enumerated above can flourish."

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This book discusses the challenges that await pastors and church leaders in the 21st century and looks at Milco?s call to arms for all church leadership in the new millennium. It examines how he feels that it is necessary for church leaders to understand all of the factors that are involved in making ethical decisions and that in order to do this one must understand the new times that we are now living in.
From the Paper
"Although the book is less than two hundred pages in length, Milco does a good job in illustrating the difficulties of life in modern society. There are eleven chapters in all, all of them with a specific focus that builds a strong message that should be listened to by today?s church leaders. People today are losing faith in the church and in church leadership, this is a problem that does not impact one religion over another, but seems to be a problem that is non-denominational in nature. It is the job of leadership to reconnect with the parishioners and to make them feel that the church is a place where they can go for guidance and counsel without fear of reprisal. According to Milco, only three out of ten adults admit that they would seek help from a minister during times of difficulty in their lives. He attributes this to a ?growing awareness of pastoral indiscretion, possible abuse cases (within the church) and many other situation that are causing parishioners to doubt the wisdom of ministers.?

From the Paper
"In order to discuss ethics, one must first attempt to understand the intricacies involved in this discipline. First, a distinction must be made between ethics and morality. "Ethical wisdom consists in knowing how to frame the ideal, and moral sagacity consists in knowing how to put the ideal to work and realize it in practice" (Rader 1964). In other words, ethics may be thought of as the theory by which morality is practiced. Although separate ideas, neither morality nor ethics can exist without the other. Once this distinction is made, the question must be asked, is ethics a science? Researchers have long tried to answer this question, and many have come to the following conclusion. It is believed that ethics is a "normative science: concerned with norms and standards not empirical facts" (Rader 1964)."

Developing Timeline
Putting It All Together
From the Paper
"Hence, ... we may culminate that staff development is a ?timely issue? as it requires preparation of budgets for public vote and drawing timelines. Thus, staff development is the only alternative that the colleges and universities as well as schools have to guarantee that, through these in-house programs ,they ?keep pace with changes in society. Major corporations invest in their workers?. Wallace State Community College must also do the same. This is because, until and unless, the college does not invest ample time, money and other essentials for improved staff development, it will remain uncertain whether the teachers at Wallace feel equipped with the latest technological teaching tools and whether they are using them or not."
