Ethical leadership drives organisational success

• Research shows most NZ organisations aim for ethical leadership.
• Ethics in business is more than 'being honest'.
• Ethical leadership involves transparency, accountability, and creating a safe workplace that fosters employee growth.

Ethical leadership starts with individual authenticity and integrity

• Ethical leadership is relevant to everyone, and discussion of the issue shouldn’t be restricted to the boardroom.
• Ethical outcomes are driven by personal intention and purpose.
• Ethical leadership involves reinforcing ethically aligned behaviour and sanctioning ‘wrong’ behaviour in the business.
