Slow Down: Ethical Challenges in the Workplace

SUGGESTED AUDIENCE
  • Organizational leaders
  • HR or TD professionals responsible for developing leaders or fostering an ethical culture in the organization

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Ethical decisions may be trickier than we think. First, engaging leaders must demonstrate both fairness and compassion. Sometimes, these two critical demands clash. Second, leaders may feel closer to some employees than to others. Closeness tends to change the way we reason as we make ethical decisions. This workshop gives leaders the chance to consider their own moral dilemmas and draft a personal code of ethics. Participants gain clearer tools to make ethical decisions and a greater awareness of invisible ethical threats. Participants will: 

Participants will:
  • Define moral dilemmas
  • Come up with moral dilemmas that may commonly affect their work
  • Discuss the role of values in ethical decision-making
  • Draft a personal code of ethics
  • Review the role of closeness, intuition and reason in ethical decision-making
  • Discuss the impact of personality on leadership ethics
  • Review the six-step moral decision-making model and apply it to resolve a moral dilemma

PROGRAM DURATION
