Abstract
Leadership has been defined as a methodology of social influence in which one individual can engage the aid and the support of others in the achievement of a typical task. For instance, some comprehend a leader essentially as someone whom individuals take after or as someone who guides or motivates individuals, while others characterize leadership as “arranging a group of individuals to attain a typical objective and achieve mutual objectives”. Leadership studies have created several types of theories including traits, function, power, situational interaction, vision, behavior, intelligence and charisma. For instance, the leadership Grid is a situational leadership which is based on two behavioral dimensions—concern for production, plotted on the X-axis on a scale from one to nine points; and concern for people, plotted on a similar scale along the Y-axis. The model proposes that the team leadership style, which displays a high degree of concern for both production and people, may boost employee productivity. This paper addresses Ethics in Leadership and how ethical and unethical leaders affect the performance of employees and addresses at the same time the impact of leadership behavior in different economics whether static or dynamic.

This paper addresses Ethics in Leadership and how ethical and unethical leaders affect the performance of employees and addresses at the same time the impact of leadership behavior in different economics whether static or dynamic
In less developed countries, leaders may take advantage of the flaws in the system and in case these markets are static and have economic problems, leaders may choose the strategy of obstructionist positioning which is in principle not ethical and not legal in some cases
