Leadership and Ethics: "Would you kill the Fat Man?"

This week’s episode is about institutional leadership and ethics. By using the Trolley problem, we go through some of the moral reasoning frameworks to answer the question “Would you kill the fat man?”. I also discuss the use of codes of conduct and organizational ethos on promoting ethical culture.
