“…Research has shown that leader initiating structure and consideration behaviors can influence the ethical frameworks (i.e., formalism and utilitarianism) observed in followers (Schminke & Wells, 1999;Schminke, Wells, Peyrefitte, & Sebora, 2002). Leaders' levels of moral reasoning can also influence their followers' moral reasoning through role modeling, observation or instruction (Dukerich, Nichols, Elm, & Vollrath, 1990). For example, when leader and follower levels of moral reasoning are congruent, research has shown that followers report higher levels of satisfaction and commitment along with lower turnover intentions (Schminke, Ambrose, & Neubaum, 2005).…”

“…Further, exposure to role models with higher levels of cognitive moral development (CMD; Kohlberg, 1981;Rest et al, 1999) may also promote higher CMD in observers through providing new moral perspectives (Dukerich et al, 1990). Authentic leaders with high levels of moral perspective who transparently discuss moral issues may play this role.…”

ABSTRACT:Organizations constitute morally-complex environments, requiring organization members to possess levels of moral courage sufficient to promote their ethical action, while refraining from unethical actions when faced with temptations or pressures. Using a sample drawn from a military context, we explored the antecedents and consequences of moral courage. Results from this four-month field study demonstrated that authentic leadership was positively related to followers’ displays of moral courage. Further, followers’ moral courage fully mediated the effects of authentic leadership on followers’ ethical and pro-social behaviors. Theoretical and practical implications for further integrating the work on moral courage, authentic leadership and ethics are discussed.

“…There is relatively little research that investigates moral reasoning in groups, and only one of the identified articles reviewed experimental studies in this area. 151 As moral reasoning is central to the work of DMCs, the findings of this review will be described here in some detail.…”

HTA NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. Suggestions for topics are actively sought from people working in the NHS, the public, consumer groups and professional bodies such as Royal Colleges and NHS Trusts.Research suggestions are carefully considered by panels of independent experts (including consumers) whose advice results in a ranked list of recommended research priorities. The HTA Programme then commissions the research team best suited to undertake the work, in ...
