Working with Ethical Gray Areas
The bottom line in leadership is that ethics cannot be codified or dictated. Ethical behavior is dependent upon the judgment and decision making by the leader. The best leaders are consistent and deliberate in their decisions when ethical gray is present. They communicate the decision, and more importantly, the reasons for their decision. They often collaborate the decision, not to cover their rear ends, but to seek wise counsel and tap into the judgment of others.

The Magic of Thinking Big: Developing the Power of Belief
I recently re-read a book that I read many years ago. It was a great reminder of the power of the mind. It’s like I tell the people that I coach, “If you think you are a winner you’re probably right. If you think you are a loser, you’re probably right.” The Magic of Thinking Big is a great book that will help you recognize that you’re thoughts and belief in yourself are the aspects that are propelling you forward or holding you back. Knowing this is probably nothing new to you however the tough part is to learn how to develop the power of belief. Schwartz suggests three ways to develop belief:

4 Ways of Defining Belief
By definition, belief refers to a psychological state in which a person holds to a premise, or an idea, that he or she discerns to be true. Belief is similar to knowledge, but differentiated by a level of stronger confidence and perhaps even of faith. One of Plato’s early works defined knowledge as a person’s “justified true belief”, and this understanding has continued through the ages. Simply put, you could say that belief is knowledge that has been proven true according to reason, plausibility, and evidence. Of course, one could argue that belief and knowledge are relative to the perception of one individual. This is a moot point though, because whatever a person wants to believe will be their reality - regardless if it is true or not.
Moral Hazards of Metrics
Build on your awareness of moral hazards within business. Steve touches on seven moral hazards within business - quantitative versus qualitative; creativity, innovation and intuition can be put aside with metrics; no evolution, efficiency versus effectiveness; myopia; assumptions and biases; looking backwards not forwards. This article builds upon the work of Ron Baker of VeraSage Institute.
Defining Belief
Psychology, as well as other practices relating to human mentality, has long held that belief is the most basic form of conscious thought. The issue of whether belief is actually a mental state remains the subject of debate. Nevertheless, in psychology, before a subject can learn any new information, the belief system must first be addressed. This allows the "proposition", or the object of the belief, to be learned.

Inspirational Leadership: Morals Are Required
If you want to be an inspirational leader, figure out your values. Sure, there might be exceptions... but the existence of very-rare exceptions shouldn't destroy the need for the moral "rules" that separate good behavior from bad. And, to put it bluntly, you will never inspire greatness in anyone if you don't have an obvious set of moral rules by which you consistently live....
Setting Your Moral Compass to North. Why talking about ethics is not enough
Just mentioning the word ethics conjures up a number of thoughts on ethical and moral failings. The late 20th century and early 21st century is marked by an increase in discussions and scholarly debate of the subject. At times you cannot even so much as turn on the television or pick up a newspaper without some news on the ethical failings of an individual or organization. Could it be that we are less moral than we once were or do moral failings only appear more prevalent simply because there is an increase in awareness through education, training and discussion? This article discusses the potential reasons for such failings and what can be done to address the matter.

The Charismatic Mindset
Charismatic people possess a mindset of empowering beliefs that build and develop their personal magnetism. As you read through this list of beliefs, take time to consider each in turn. To what extent is each of these beliefs already part of your personal belief system? If you feel resistance to one of these statements, spend some time to imagine how you would feel, think and act if you made that belief your own. Notice how it might empower you, push you to take more responsibility, or make you stronger and more assertive. Think of something you could now do that perhaps you would not have dared to do without that new belief. Try it out. Have fun! Grow some charisma within you!
