The Intersection of Leadership and Ethics in the Context of Flexible Work

Supervisory Team

Principal Supervisor: Dr Andrei Lux 

Associate Supervisor: Professor Edward Wray-Bliss

Abstract

Flexible and remote work arrangements became widespread during the COVID-19 pandemic and many organisations have retained a degree of this flexibility as part of their ‘new normal’ way of working. Leaders today regularly engage with followers over remote platforms as their employees are working from home. Giving leaders a window into their followers’ private lives has expanded the scope of their ethical responsibilities. What happens, for example, when leaders see evidence of unhealthy, chaotic, immoral, or criminal behaviour in the background of virtual meetings or in the demeanour of home-working followers? We are yet to fully appreciate the implications of these changes and more research is needed.
