Jake recently invested in a Hottie Potatee franchised business that serves potatoes with all the trimmings. The business needs lots of employees in order to operate effectively. He told you that if he calls the business once each day and tells the employees that he is on his way there, they will be on their best behavior. As he tells it, "It's okay if I really don't make it there, after all, I'm the owner and the business should be able to run without micromanagement." As a recent student of business ethics, you remind Jake that:

It is important that Jake change his stance in relation to his leadership style, as an effective leader is one who can communicate with his employees in a direct and ethical way, providing essential information for carrying out activities and through his example of conduct and behaviors build a work environment focused on collaboration, employee engagement, motivation, performance, learning, etc.

To achieve satisfactory results, the leader has to base his management and his conduct on integrity, respect and values that serve as an example of the employees' conduct, so that he feels integrated and essential for the organization, increases his job satisfaction and creating so there is a positive environment and focused on development and generating results.
