Emerging Ethical Issues
Ethical scandals have become almost commonplace in today’s world. Ranging from busi-
ness and sports to politics and the entertainment industry, these scandals have rocked
stakeholder confidence and called into question the moral integrity of our society. At
the same time, most women and men today conduct themselves and their affairs in
accordance with high ethical standards. Hence, as we
summarize several emerging ethical issues in organiza-
tions, it is important to remember that one cannot
judge everyone by the transgressions of a few.
Ethical Leadership
In recent years, the media have
been rife with stories about unscrupulous corporate lea-
ders. For every unethical senior manager, of course,
there are many highly ethical ones. But the actions of
such high-profile deposed executives as Mark Hurd
(Hewlett Packard), Dennis Kozlowski (Tyco), Kenneth
Lay (Enron), and Allen Stanford (Stanford Financial
Group) have substantially increased the scrutiny
directed at all executives. As a direct result, executives
everywhere are expected to exhibit nothing but the
strongest ethical conduct. This leadership, in turn, is
expected to help set the tone for the rest of the organi-
zation and to establish both norms and a culture that
reinforce the importance of ethical behavior.

Ethical leadership has taken on increased importance in
recent years. One recent high-profile example involved an
executive named Mark Hurd. Hurd was appointed CEO of
Hewlett-Packard but was subsequently forced to resign
following allegations of sexual harassment.

The basic premise behind ethical leadership is that because leaders serve as role
models for others, their every action is subject to scrutiny. If a senior executive
exercises questionable judgment, this sends a signal to others that such actions are
acceptable. This signal may, in turn, be remembered by others when they face similar
situations. As a result, CEOs such as American Express’s Kenneth Chenault and
Costco’s James Sinegal are now being held up as the standard against which others
are being measured. The basic premise is that CEOs must set their company’s moral
tone by being honest and straightforward and by taking responsibility for any
shortcomings that are identified. To support this view, Congress passed the
