Dr Simon Longstaff: The Moral Courage of Ethical Leadership

The true difference between leaders and managers comes down to ethics. Managers may make the ‘right’ choice, or the popular choice. Leaders push past standard customs and practices, and will follow their moral code to make decisions. Dr Simon Longstaff, Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, has structured his life around philosophy and ethics, after it was modelled to him by his mother when he was just a child, and continued during his early career on Groote Eylandt. True leadership is not about living and modelling a perfect ethical life, there is no such thing, but making conscious choices that align with core values, and sometimes that takes enormous moral courage.Links from the episode: The Ethics Centre Common SenseThe Rights of Man Perfect Days What does Two Am I mean to you?
