Every supervisor and manager should be able to identify and articulate their personal ethical values since the process of ethical reasoning begins with an understanding of these values and behaviors.
This workshop will help participants understand the ethical behaviors which should govern all supervisor and employee interactions, understand the importance of role modeling expectations, and assist in identifying the core components of a code of ethics for all supervisors and managers to follow.
At the end of this program, participants will be able to:
· Identify supervisor-worker boundaries and behaviors which are unethical and/or potentially illegal
· Define dual-role relationships, identify different types of dual-role relationships, and list their potential ethical and legal ramifications
· Discuss common ethical issues such as supervising former peers and/or friends, socializing with former co-workers, and other common issues that surface in transitioning from worker to supervisor
· Understand the concepts of ‘do no harm’, ‘role modeling’, ‘consistency’ and ‘fairness’ and their application to supervision
· Know how to use the “Ethics Test” when confronted with ethical decisions
· Develop a personalized Action Plan for Ethical Behavior
