Organizations are more fragile than ever before. It’s a dynamic world where social media and public whim drive purchasing decisions. One wrong move, one wrong message and any organization can fall from grace with customers, partners, and the public at large. But the opposite is also true, those leaders who embrace ethical principles can lift their organizations to ever higher levels of achievement.

The importance of the leader in any organization is increasing in importance, not diminishing. In this course, you will learn the five principles of ethical organizational leadership and contrast those against the amoral and immoral behaviors of organizational leaders. You will walk away with a new mindset for leading any organization in the modern era.

Learning Objectives
  • Discover and discuss the role ethics plays in organizational leadership.
  • Identify principles that define ethical organizational leadership from other forms of organizational leadership.
  • Identify amoral and immoral behaviors that undermine organizational leadership.

Both presenters were very engaging! I loved the fact that they gave us real examples of Ethical Leadership (Hirschberg) and Amoral Leadership (Pearson). I would definitely be interested in taking more of this duo's courses!
