Abstract
This text examines the perception and consequences of new overall leaders whether in-person or cyber. First, the researcher presents fairness as a salient action by which followers, in-person or cyber, perceive leaders as working within the rules or standards for correct practice or conduits within a profession. Second, the researcher utilizes the fairness supposition to present leadership behaviors in that followers are generally willing to be led. Third, the researcher compares the fairness definition and supposition to a case study. Finally, the researcher presents how the values that brace leaders' fairness behaviors affect the behaviors of their followers and walk through behaviors and thoughts that may surface. The information will provide data that practitioners, and academes may employ in long and short term, in-person and cyber strategies.
