Overview of the webinar
Learn about a convergence of trends advancing our understanding of "good leadership.” Explore the question “What is ethical leadership?” from a holistic perspective that sheds some light on why scholars have not yet been able to agree on a single definition.
Thornton’s book 7 Lenses: Learning the Principles and Practices of Ethical Leadership describes 7 ethical dimensions that are sometimes viewed as competing interests. Her multidimensional model is based on the expanding scope of expected ethical responsibility and includes a set of 7 Lenses for “seeing” ethical responsibility, ranging from very narrow to broad and long term.
Leaders deal with multiple stakeholders who have competing interests and goals. “Seeing” ethical responsibility in 7 dimensions upgrades their ethical thinking to a higher level and prepares them to deal with increasing complexity.
