How the success of an organization lies in its leaders.
McFarland should have been truthful and transparent, which are critical leadership traits
The failure of Fyre Festival can be considered one of the most extreme examples of leadership gone awry, where promises were broken, and unethical actions were encouraged.
The downfall of Fyre Festival could have been avoided and the actions of the individuals involved could have been ethically centered, if their actions were morally aligned and if formal ethics policies were put in place.
Leadership within the organization should re-evaluate their moral standards and priorities in regard to helping shape the business plan.
