Abstract
This paper analyzes how leaders’ wrongdoings may lead to moral and reputation crises, eroding trust in leaders and organizations. For that, four cases will be analyzed: the Brazilian JBS "Weak meat Operation," Volkswagen's diesel gate emissions-cheating scandal, France Telecom's suicides, and Boeing's fraudulent conduct on quality and safety control. This research is based on case studies and content analysis.
