The discussion Boards focus on a particular group of ethical leadership and organizational ethics concepts. These discussions are designed to be scholarly examinations of complex constructs and through the engagement of fellow students, offer deeper exploration. Your expanded exploration and graceful challenges will provoke deeper learning and the development of sound reasoning in support of clearer, worldview-based ethical perspectives. In the process of discussions, you will also develop richer research, reasoning, and doctoral level presentation practices as you deepen your personal ethical leadership understanding.
These discussions are intended to be scholarly dialogs and for each thread, you must support all of your assertions with proper scholarly support in APA format with sources listed as References at the end of the post. Support ALL claims and information provided. Discussions threads are expected to engage the assigned subject matter, drawing on the reading and study materials within the course as well as additional researched scholarly materials. A minimum of 4 scholarly sources are required for your initial thread. Acceptable sources are textbooks, Bible, peer-reviewed journal articles, and quality popular press articles (HBR, Forbes, BusinessWeek, etc.) with no more than 1 popular press article per week.

Assignment:

Explain how ethical considerations, reasoning, power, and worldviews may influence how leaders make decisions and how the decision-making method they use may impact the leader’s ability to influence. Integrate the results of your Self-Assessment 5.1 from Johnson in your discussion. Feel free to include decision-models beyond those covered in the text at your option.
Incorporate study material, personal worldview, experiences, observations, and reasoning principles that should be considered. As usual, use textbooks and peer-reviewed scholarly journals to support your perspectives or arguments. Be sure to review the Discussions Instructions document and grading rubric (found in the Assignment Instructions folder) for additional assignment guidance.

You must include at least 4 scholarly sources (with a limit of 1 popular press article). Please read the grading rubric before starting this paper.
