SUMMARY:Ethical Leader — ELM3D3 | In-Person
DESCRIPTION:Non-Member Fee: $100 \nIf you would like to register for this training\, please log into Neogov to access Learn. Once in Learn\, search this course within the Course Catalog\, select the class instance and hit “Enroll”. \nCVMIC will provide a continental breakfast and lunch as part of the training day.  \nIf you have food allergies or if you are not interested in the provided food\, refrigerator and freezer space are available for any food you wish to bring. \nAfter enrolling\, you will receive an invoice via email\, that will need to be paid in order to attend training. \nIf participating in this program to complete the Emerging Leadership Learning Plan\, please complete the Learning Plan enrollment on CVMIC.com under “Training”. \nIt is easy to take ethics for granted. Ethical decision making is often an expectation of every employee; unfortunately\, we often discuss work-related ethical decisions only after there has been an unethical decision made. Formally\, leaders may discuss ethics during job interviews\, investigations\, and code of conduct policies. Informally\, leaders may cover ethics during meetings\, performance-related communication\, and when making job-related decisions. Ultimately\, leaders are responsible for creating and maintaining an ethical culture on the job. \nAfter attending this program participants will be able to: \n\nDefine and analyze ethical situations in the workplace\nUtilize ethical problem-solving tools to think ethically\nCreate an ethical culture on the job\n\nThis program will help increase a leader’s ability to think and act ethically. Unethical decisions often result in significant consequences and this program looks to (re)establish the ethical expectations of all employees.
