Miller's Intervention: A Case Study

In summary, Miller’s intervention is quintessential ethical leadership. Miller was extraordinarily successful in de-escalating Mobley and Ward’s aggression and defusing the bystanders’ antagonisation. He swiftly adapted to the bystanders’ mockery and had overcome their reaction by incorporating their disapproval into his articulation. Miller wedged the liminal space in-between Mobley and Ward’s social identity and isolated the discursive interplay within their moral agency. Miller rendered the scenario, redressed it, then positioned it toward the possibility for alternative modes of reasoning and courses of action. Miller’s ethics transformed adversaries into partners by restructuring the setting into a morally conducive environment. Here, a leader’s courage was not gained by overcoming risk and anxiety.

Shapiro and Stefkovich’s Multiple Ethics Paradigm (2013) was applied to interventional contexts and found ethical leadership segments social identities and moral agencies by ascribing, positioning, accentuating, and qualifying experience. It is determined the operations of ethical leadership within interventions may generate intersubjective space and expose liminal spaces. The process functions to transvalue socio-emotional reasoning and promote followership through communal integrity. Miller’s intervention is arguably a cogent visual aid for educators to deconstruct the social processes of ethical leadership in real-time. It is recommended to anchor Miller’s intervention within leadership disciplines as an indispensable visual aid and analytical vehicle for future
