LEADERSHIP AND ETHICAL DECISION MAKING

It’s not only the top-level leaders that exercise influence in their organization. Everyone in the workplace can share a responsibility to the organization of making decisions that do not conflict with our legal, moral and ethical obligations to its clients and each other. We do this through influence. The ability to influence our supervisors and subordinates is part of becoming a more effective communicator and no longer looking at what is considered right or wrong but instead evaluating what is reasonable and what is unreasonable or effective and not so effective.

We use our values and beliefs every day in our decision-making as a compass for determining what fulfills us as human beings or in another way; what brings us self-satisfaction when it comes to the choices we make. For the success of our business, our colleagues, and ourselves, we must constantly evaluate the way we communicate verbally and physically business practices to prevent exposing the organization to significant vulnerability.

This interactive course expands on key considerations in our decision-making by team members, subordinates, and executives by recognizing how our decision-making influences an organization’s performance.
