The global aerospace industry performs countless risk decisions every day. These decisions are generally mundane and their correctness trusted upon by stakeholders. As in any human endeavor, there have been several aerospace tragedies. As the industry expands globally, the risk potential for poor decision outcomes expands. Applied global leadership research may provide insights for risk reduction. This applied research study, utilizing Patricia Werhane's (2008) business ethics theory of moral imagination, synergizes her moral managerial decision-making theory with contextual intelligence model (Kutz, 2017), triune ethics meta-theory (Narvaez, 2016), and responsible leadership theory (Miska & Mendenhall, 2018). Additionally, an understanding of moral virtues was derived from Pine (2022) as a guide for deconstructing moral content from the participants; lived experiences. This multidisciplinary approach holistically combined the theories to reach a deeper understanding of aerospace risk decision-making. The theoretical framework may serve as a basis for other research into moral imagination. A phenomenological research methodology (Creswell & Poth, 2018), informed by the descriptive phenomenological design in psychology (Giorgi, 2009), evaluated moral imagination from a global leadership research perspective. Eight participants provided lived experiences. Eight themes emerged from the analysis. The themes for aerospace leaders from this research were a) safety first, b) issues need identified and addressed in their earliest stages, c) compliance needs achieved while operations need kept moving, d) organizations need viewed as a work in progress, e) discordant moral and ethical behaviors often emerge during problem solving, f) use facts and data when developing solutions and courses of planned action, g) aerospace leaders embody a personal conviction for others safety, and h) aerospace leaders must establish and consistently practice their moral codes. It is intended that the outcomes of this study are useful for applied research in moral imagination and informing recommendations for global aerospace policies on risk decision making.
