Homework Assignment #8 –
Reflective Writing
In the beginning I thought
that being an ethical leader would actually not be that hard. Of course
deciding about what is ethical or not ethical, could be a big struggle
sometimes. But in the end there is the one decision you have to make to
accomplish your goal. Though getting to know the seven C’s you should achieve,
makes me rethink the leader position. There are lots of values a leader needs
to fulfill. So as I learned there are a lot of complicated aspects you have to
include. Also Machiavelli gave me a very new perspective of a leader. How he
tried appearing good, so that the people love him, and behind their backs being
power hungry by always trying to get more power and making others weaker. Also
how he manipulated people, twisted facts around and used necessary evil when
it’s the only option for the situation, was very shocking and interesting to
me. Through the ethical Leadership course I learned, that there are often grey
situations, where you ask yourself what the right answer is and the ethics and
values become challenged. But I really liked clarifying morals, values, and
leadership. I learned lots on being a good ethical leader and really hope to
succeed in the future with some of this ‘new’ information. Thank you! Emily Bross
