The governing body should make sure leadership is ethical in every area: its members act in keeping with the organizational values, the organization conducts itself in keeping with them, and the organization treats its stakeholders in keeping with them. The law sets a floor of values; the rest are found in documents agreed collectively, such as a code of conduct. The leadership values expected of governing bodies and their members are accountability, probity and integrity, competence and emotional intelligence, fairness and transparency, and respect for diversity. Table 2 lists the conduct expected of the governing body itself: acting honestly and in the organization's best interest, declaring any real, possible or apparent conflict of interest as early as possible and managing it, behaving ethically and lawfully, setting the tone by behaving as staff are expected to, and admitting failures and mistakes and acting on them (probity and integrity); getting to know every aspect of the organization and its setting and acting carefully, skilfully, diligently and loyally (competence); being open about decisions that affect the environment, society and the economy and explaining them clearly, accurately, promptly, honestly and fully (transparency); and building diversity and inclusion into every decision (diversity and inclusion).
