Facilitating Success with Ethical Competence
Everyone understands the value of concepts like “change management” and “cultural competence,” but many of our major initiatives still fail because of stakeholder misalignment or outright resistance. An often overlooked skillset – “ethical competence” – can fill the gap. An ethically competent communicator harmonizes competing values, not just competing objectives, and thereby overcomes the pre-rational barriers that thwart success. Attendees will take away a clearer understanding of the seven primary ethical paradigms as well as a deeper appreciation for how those paradigms affect motivation and can be affected, in turn, by alternative communication strategies.
