E17 | How to Navigate Ethical Leadership Dilemmas
About this episode
In this conversation we dig into why ethical leadership is the engine of a coaching mindset. We define ethics vs. morality, and stress integrity — consistency between what leaders say and what they do — as the foundation of trust. We explore practical behaviors: transparency (and how to say “I can’t share that yet”), respect, confidentiality, and the courage to confront mistakes with dignity.
We also unpack values work and four pillars of personal integrity (self-awareness, self-legitimization, self-completion, self-love) as tools leaders use to make better decisions and model the behavior they expect. Finally, we discuss pitfalls (public feedback that misses its target) and leave listeners with concrete ways to bring ethics into everyday coaching conversations.
