This is essential to every leader for the successful implementation of an ethical approach within organizations and the benefits of disseminating ethical practices. The article reviews the organizational epistemic virtues and organizational misconduct, epistemic beneficence, Epistemic Justice, Epistemic integration, Humility, and open-mindedness. These are ethical reasoning and virtue-based leadership, to help leaders and other professionals process information within their professions with ethical control through governance (Meyer, M., & Li, T., 2024). The way information is processed through a certain channel can also raise concerns regarding the speed of judgment within an organization regarding misconduct, and it is essential in this review whether flawed information has the potential to assist in the process.

The analysis addresses the conditions and strategies that are carried out through these representations of work in an organization, corporate governance, and business atmosphere, intra and extra-corporate relationships, and leadership (Choo,C.W., 2020). This framework focuses on morality for leadership with specific attention to virtues (Meyer,M., & Li,T., 2024).

Management concepts of integrity, authenticity, and virtues are widespread, with corporations giving rise to models of good governance aimed at construction (Brown, 2005). Emphasis on moral behavioral leadership is the interest in the code of business ethical standards. With virtues leadership, managers and entrepreneurs construct a good leader to portray morality, and by influencing others to do so, by acting with virtues leadership in both personal and professional behavior (Parry & Proctor-Thompson, 2002; Bouckaert, 2011; Pruzan, 2011). Virtues-based ethical standards in a business setting have levels regarding corporate responsibility, and the role it also plays in other areas, like religion, and in business ethics, helps to address work, develop ideas for business, giving particular attention to ethical culture. Organizational culture with high morality in its leadership enjoys several benefits for understanding independence with stakeholders, learning environment, respect and trust, cooperation, and responsibility and accountability (CRS corporate social responsibility).

Virtues-based leadership and governance are becoming increasingly relevant as ethics has drawn attention in various areas of work (MacIntyre, 1985). This level of ethics provides the realization of the potential of human beings to be able to achieve what is good for them and for others, which gradually develops relationships for the excellent (Hartman, 2011). Virtues with practical wisdom can build a bridge between people and values in their personal and professional lives, with courage and generosity, giving them the achievement of distinguished characteristics (Bertland, 2009).

With organization epistemologists, it is the qualities that enable an agent or collection to gain knowledge that support the effectiveness of the information presented to allow a change positively (Battaly, 2008). Epistemic virtues are concern with how individuals and organizations deal with information and turn it into knowledge to change the environment positively (Baird & Calvard, 2019).

1. What, if anything, did you found confusing,

Nothing is found confusing here in this article regarding ethical and virtues-based models of leadership for good governance, since ethical responsibilities in the corporate world and in individual personal life matter to the improvement of societal norms. The concern is the kind of information circulation in an environment which is the reality of life. Being in a place where negative information is collected daily has the potential to change the thinking process of an individual or the setting of the environment. The same with positive information, it has the power to transform the trajectory of the environment with consistency.

1. How you can implement the knowledge learned from the article in your career or career you seek, and

The world today is a place where most people and corporations are trying to pursue the code of ethical standards for reliability and trust, for credibility. Virtues in leadership are very important for every career path, and these are going to be implemented to provide clarity and professionalism to help others in the workforce to be representatives and true faces in coordinating each code of ethical standards (Brown & Trevino, 2006). These strategies can be opportunistically used as an instrument to facilitate the codes of professional conduct. Following the code of professional ethics in reliant with moral-based and virtue-based align to promote well-being positively, which will be implemented daily through observation and with persistence.
