Ethicability
October 26, 2011 at 1:54 PM
The need to make difficult decisions with integrity and conviction has never been greater. Corruption, environmental disasters, the economic downturn and human catastrophes are dominating the headlines. But how do we go about deciding what is right and then find the courage to do it? Roger Steare addresses exactly that question in an empowering, respectful and accessible manner. Without telling us what is right, he offers insights from psychology, philosophy and behavioural sciences which culminate in a framework of 20 questions to guide us safely through moral and ethical dilemmas.
The complexity of professional and business ethics demands a careful evaluation of stakeholder interests and resolving significant conflicts of interest on a daily basis. Making good decisions and doing the right thing is a building block for the long-term success of an organisation. It attracts talent, develops people, enables a sustainable leadership style and engages stakeholders in the long-term.
Ethicability invites us to think for ourselves and is equally relevant for our personal and professional life.
