Ethical Leadership for Today’s Complex Business Environment Webinar

Register below for this on-demand webinar.

Seminar description

To say that today’s business and employment environments are complex is a vast understatement. Leaders are facing situations and making decisions related to discrimination, harassment, health and safety, diversity, equity, business and personal confidentiality, individual responsibility, skyrocketing prices, competitive challenges and so much more! So how do we make decisions that are fair, ethical, and good for the business? This workshop offers a perspective that ethical leadership guides good decision-making and leads to a more fair, positive, and engaging workplace, which gives you competitive advantage. The session is grounded in the well-established lens of five different ethical perspectives that leaders must understand to get past binary thinking to work with the world as it is, not as we think it should be. You will even identify and explore your own ethical framework —and understand why it can be hard to work with people who see things differently than you do.

Learning objectives
1. Examine five ethical perspectives: Utilitarian, Altruistic, Communitarian, Justice as Fairness, and the Categorical Imperative.

2. Review examples of each perspective and how they work in the business environment.

3. Through the use of real-world architecture scenarios, examine how ethical leadership impacts decision making.

4. Discover tools for everyday decisions including right vs. wrong ethical tests, right vs. right, and the SAD moral reasoning process.
