Week 4.1 Discussion  

APPRAISE & DIFFERENTIATE: After your review of Johnson (2016) Chapters 7 & 8 (see attached), consider the following and respond to each question centered on Group and Leadership based ethics. 

Group Ethics: 

•What poses the most danger to teams:  groupthink or mismanaged agreement?   

•How do you recognize when your group is caught in the escalation of commitment? 

 •Do you think that groups can exert more control over the behavior of members than managers do?  

Leadership Ethics: 

•What ethical guidelines would you set for gathering and sharing information?

 •Is it possible for a leader to be incompetent but ethical? 

•Why are ethical leaders generally more effective as well?
