Leaders are accountable for their actions. Leaders are obligated to be honest with their employees, customers, suppliers, and partners.

Leaders will often rely on what they learned at the top, because most leaders have never had the opportunity to make mistakes and they trust that their leader will teach them the right way to act in all situations. That way they are sure that they are doing the right thing and following the right path.
