Overview of the webinar
Are we just reacting to the chaos, or are we making intentional, values-based choices? Are we the sum of our challenges, or of our choices?
In the course of a chaotic day, do we stop to think about the choices we’re making?
Left on autopilot, our thinking and decision-making can easily gravitate toward convenience and personal gain. But those are not ethical values and ethical values need to be central to our decisions and actions. How do we keep them that way?
Ethical leaders understand their leadership responsibilities and their important role in the organization and the broader global community.
They are intentional, positive and proactive. They think beyond their own interests to the interests of others. They understand how their decisions have a ripple effect long after the moment they are made.
This session will explore how ethical leaders think – the ways of thinking that lead to ethical success in a rapidly changing environment. Learn how to take charge of your thinking and ground your leadership choices in positive ethical values.

Why should you attend?
We work in a world where complexity is increasing at a rapid pace. Globalization requires that we think well beyond our own walls at the same time we are dealing with very real leadership challenges close to home. How can leaders prepare to make good choices in an environment that is constantly changing? They need good thinking skills that incorporate ethical values.
Many leaders faced with busy schedules and constant challenges let their thinking go on autopilot without asking important questions as they make decisions. The results of using “autopilot thinking,” though, can be disastrous.
To make ethical choices, leaders need to take charge of their thinking, keep it grounded in ethical values and avoid thinking traps and shortcuts. In this session, you’ll learn how ethical leaders think, common thinking traps to avoid, tips for applying ethical thinking in the workplace and how to stay off autopilot and keep leadership thinking intentional.
