curiously filtered using statistical methods. The complete questionnaires were treated by descriptive

treatment, most of the leaders in SMUC don’t try much to raise high moral and ethical standards among
employees, most of the leaders at different levels of the Institute don’t take ideas whenever there is a
problem in job, the majority of the respondents disagree with idea of being highly interested in their job.

employees can do their job ethically and by moral. The leaders should also try to give fair and equal
treatments to all their subordinates, and should try to getting ideas and opinions of their subordinates in
that the subordinates see things from different angles so that they might give an idea which help them to
solve the problem. The leaders should try to understand their subordinates’ interest because this is very
important for the success of the Institution and to maximize their subordinates’ degree of interest.
