Here is another article that I liked which talks about ethical leadership. One of the main take aways I got from this article is that I need to decide what action I will take before I am ever faced with an ethical dillemma. For example; choosing to not lie in a job interview (and overstate responsibilities and performance) beforehand will help one be true to that value rather than waiting to make that decision during the interview.
