Do you agree or disagree with this view? Why, or why not? Justify your position based on the readings and resources in this unit, as well as your individual experiences.

Selecting a Business Leader
Identify a successful and current business leader (CEO or president) from a Fortune Global 1000 company. Choose this individual carefully, as this selection will form the basis of assignments in this course. Post the CEO's or president's name and organization and why you selected him or her (a maximum of 300 words).

What can be done to help leaders be more ethical when seeking to influence others? Make sure to provide appropriate support, both academic and logical, for your positions.
