The ethical leader.
Ethics in healthcare organizations are the purview of not only bioethical committees healthcare but also management, which faces ethical dilemmas that are as difficult and many sided as are medical decisions faced by patients and their families. Leaders with integrity recognize that most issues have numerous stakeholders with varying points of view and make it part of their leadership competency to include consideration of ethics in their management decisions.
