Bob Slater is president at Kew Rotary. His told of his observations on aspects of ethics, and the interplay with leadership. Ethical Leadership he termed it. That's Bob above rejecting the podium to talk from the floor.
Bob has a background in the military, and engineering and the management of charitable foundations. He recalled his interest in the topic arose when interacting with some year 12 students. The issue was to guide them with options to combat unethical behavior and pressure from others to do something less than the "right thing".
Thus he took us through a series of historical commentaries and definitions on this highly philosophical area and left us realizing that there is no unique correct approach.
