Bringing Ethics Training To Real Life
Through interactive exercises, reality-based examples and lots and lots of discussion, Nan leads participants far beyond a surface examination of ethics and into the heart of real-life ethical dynamics. Participants find ethics seminars thought provoking, nourishing, and surprisingly fun! And, almost without exception, ethics seminars increase camaraderie and strengthen morale. After all, who doesn’t want to work for a company that is committed to personal as well as systemic integrity?
PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Nan DeMars, renowned Workplace Ethicist, believes, “All admins in today’s workplace find themselves from time to time in the ethical crossfire of business activities. Simply because their positions place them where the action is – they can even be deemed the First Responders to Ethical Dilemmas!”
And, they often struggle with the question: Can you hold onto your job and your integrity at the same time? Nan believes you can!
This timely, up-to-date Ethics Workshop for Administrative Professionals is an energizing and introspective wake-up call regarding the reality-based ethical dilemmas admins often face (some ripped from the day’s headlines). Nan sheds light on how to best handle ethical workplace dilemmas while upholding one’s personal and professional standards.
