Ethics plays are a critical leadership role. As a health care leader, you must be cognizant of ethical principles in making decisions regarding the patient and your employees.
Read The Case Study of the Transferred Employee located on page 277, Chapter 10 of the textbook, and answer the following questions in a case study analysis:
- What would you do if you were faced with this dilemma?
- Would you change the documents? Why?
- Do you go back and confront your supervisor? Why?
- What is your decision at this point, and why did you make it?
- What would you do or what would be the right thing to do?
- What other factors do you consider in making a decision here?
- What ethical framework or distributive justice theory best supports your decisions regarding the case, and why?
- What essential leadership principles did your supervisor lack, and how would you help your supervisor do the right thing?
- How should the health care leader use power to effectively influence the organization's performance?
- What leadership styles are appropriate to mentor–followers?
