Center for Community Health and Development at the University of Kansas. Leader Identification First, review Profiles in Business Ethics: Community Thought Leaders (Appendix B of Business Ethics). Choose one of the contemporary thought leaders from the list (or another high profile leader of your choosing) who exemplifies ethical leadership and whom you would like to research for your final project. Make sure the ethical business leader you select is high profile enough that you will be able to locate several online sources to support your work in Part 2 of the final project. Then, Review Chapter 13, Section 8: Ethical Leadership in the Community Tool Box resource.
