blank
Local leaders are encouraged to register and attend a one-day workshop on Monday, October 7, titled Deliber8: An Ethical Training Program for Leaders. The event is a product of a long-standing partnership between the Association for Practical and Professional Ethics (APPE) and the Prindle Institute for Ethics at DePauw University, where APPE is headquartered.
Designed for business, nonprofit, and government leaders, it will focus on ethical reasoning and deliberation in order to:
• Help leaders make tough ethical decisions
• Provide them with tools for talking through ethical disagreements, and
• Promote a culture of ethical responsibility within their businesses and organizations.
The workshop will run 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and costs $15/person. Registrants can apply for a fee waiver and travel reimbursement through the website at appe-ethics.org/deliber8.
Presented in partnership with The Center for Practical Ethics at the University of Mississippi and hosted by The Prindle Institute for Ethics at DePauw University (2961 W. County Road 225 S., Greencastle), the APPE workshop will be an interactive experience led by scholars from those institutes with extensive experience providing such workshops.
With plenty of time for networking, discussion, and hands-on guidance from ethics experts, participants will gain a robust set of tools and information to better navigate ethical disagreements and challenges within their organizations and professional life.
Participants are invited to bring codes of conduct or statements of values from their own organizations to better learn how to understand, apply, and even improve them.
This program has been made possible through a grant from Indiana Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities, as well as a grant from the Greencastle Walmart Distribution Center.
