Answer 1

Answer:

Proximity of effect              

Explanation:

Proximity of effect is the social, psychological, cultural, or physical distance of a decision maker from those affected by his or her decisions and is one of the factors that need to be taken into account when determining the ethical intensity of an action.        

Proximity of effect asserts that being too close to an employee  will cause a leader, unit head, supervisor from being objective in the assessment of his employees and hence bad choices. This is due to the tendency of the supervisor to experience increased feeling of likeness for that employee and thus clouds his/her judgement.
