Bad Apples or Bad Barrels?: Navigating Everyday Ethics Issues in the Workplace
In this session, we'll explore that beyond our own strongly-held moral values - and our company's carefully crafted values -- our everyday work life is filled with ethical choices that fall outside those lines. And these decisions are further complicated by the power dynamics embedded in our coworker relationships, management practices, and workplace policies/HR practices (for example, what do you do when your boss is the one behaving unethically?)
Specifically, we'll discuss how to recognize issues of ethics in our everyday work lives, and discuss some strategies for both navigating the pitfalls of speaking up, and steps organizations can take to build a culture committed to living its ethical values. We’ll also discuss what it takes for an organization with leadership committed to ethical values to grapple with what it means to support employees' expressions of dissent and avoid retaliation against those with the courage to "speak up."
Time: 11 a.m. - Noon
