And in the end, better decisions is really where the rubber meets the road when it comes to ethics.
This program - whether as a keynote or seminar - will help your audience learn how to prevent ethics problems rather than having to clean up after the legal, financial, and public-relations nightmare than an ethics problem will bring.
This is not a review of the ethics code, code of conduct, or case law. Rather, this program provides audiences with solid and immediately applicable ideas and tools to reduce their eithcs risk - and the risk of their companies - all while having a great time in the process.
The book, "Better Ethics NOW: How To Avoid The Ethics Disaster You Never Saw Coming" is recommended as reading to accompany this program.
Businesses do better when they have a sound, practical, and easily applied set of guiding values from which to work. No one will argue with that. Yet, few companies or associations actually have values statements designed for either their optimal clarity or power.
This seminar will guide you through the development and implementation of a values statement which will become a galvanizing force for your department's, division's, associations's, or company's success. This conversational but power-packed program is easily geared towards maximizing the success of your initiatives for management, leadership, customer service, and branding alike.
Ultimately your company will live or die based on the degree to which your customers and potential customers trust your ability to persistently, effectively and efficiently keep the necessary focus on your mission and stated values. This program will provide you with the essential ideas and tools necessary to do exactly that. This program is based, in part, on Dr. Bauer's expertise in developing organizational cultures of ethics and values but moves much more deeply into how to harness key internal assets to develop the kind of organization others will want to return to, refer to, and with whom they'll want to do all the business they can.
(This program is available as a 45-100 minute presentation, a three to four-hour highly interactive seminar or as a 60-100 minute general session program followed by one to three additional hours/concurrent sessions for groups who would like to dig more deeply into the material.)
