It becomes reasonable to ask why these efforts have not been working. Business faculty in ethics courses spend a lot of time teaching theories of ethical reasoning and analyzing those big, thorny dilemmas-triggering what one professor called ethics fatigue. But what if faculty stopped focusing on ethical analysis and focused on a new curriculum-one that builds a conversation across the core curriculum (not only in ethics courses) and also provides the teaching aids for a new way of thinking about ethics education? This is where Giving Voice to Values (GVV) comes in-the GVV curriculum asks the question: What if I were going to act on my values? What would I say and do? How could I be most effective? This book will help faculty across the business curriculum with examples, strategies, and assistance in applying the GVV approach. In addition to an introductory chapter, which explains the rationale and strategy behind GVV, there are twelve individual chapters by faculty from the major business functional areas and from faculty representing different geographic regions. The book is a useful guide for faculty from any business discipline on HOW to use the GVV approach in his or her teaching. Giving Voice to Values, under the leadership of Mary Gentile, has fundamentally changed the way business ethics and values-driven leadership is taught and discussed in academic and corporate settings worldwide.This book shifts attention to the future of Giving Voice to Values (GVV) and provides thought pieces from practitioners and leading experts in business ethics and the professions on the possibilities for sustaining its growth and success. These include the creation of new teaching materials, reaching different audiences, and expanding the ways in which GVV is making a difference in classrooms and the workplace and acting as a catalyst for organizational and societal change. The book closes with a reflective chapter by Mary Gentile, looking back at where GVV has been and looking ahead to where GVV might go. Can employees be trained to make more ethical decisions? If so, how? Providing evidence-based and practical answers to these critical questions is the purpose of this book. To answer these questions, the authors--four organizational psychologists who specialize in the study of ethical decision making--translate insights based on decades of scientific research. Whether you are a student, educator, HR manager, compliance professional, or simply someone interested in the topic of ethics education, this book offers a road map for designing ethics training programs that work. Never before have the pressures of a comparative and competitive world impacted on our sense of wellbeing, particularly among young adults.

Authentic Excellence answers five primary questions:How are young adults affected by this world of relentless change and pressure?Why are young adults vulnerable to a plateau that can negatively affect their resilience?What is the difference between fear-based excellence and authentic excellence and what role do values play in this distinction?What is necessary to move beyond fear-based excellence and why is it so hard?How do you train a deeper level of effectiveness that includes more consistent productivity, fulfillment and resilience? This book presents practical advice to law students and those entering and now working in the legal profession that will help them to reconcile who they are as a person with the demands and opportunities of a legal career.The book sets out a clear framework and practice examples for: (i) defining success, (ii) understanding the role of a professional in relation to clients, colleagues, adversaries and community, (iii) reconciling demands of practice within ethical rules and norms, business considerations and personal values and (iv) building a values-centered, economically viable practice and reputation.Complete with practical advice and experiences that produce and reinforce a holistic approach, this book provides invaluable support for second- and third-year law students and lawyers in practice to establish elusive work-life balance over the course of a legal career. This book takes the central issues facing board members today and applies the giving voice to values framework while also providing insights from practicing board members who have faced these issues. It covers such topics as strategic planning and monitoring, director independence, privacy and cyber risk, executive compensation and CEO succession planning. With this book, readers will also grapple with the conflicts of interest that might arise in the director selection process, role of the nominating committee and the compensation committee in order to cultivate more optimal board dynamics.The principles of giving voice to values start by asking a deceptively simple question: \'What if you were going to act on your values--what would you say and do?\' The book then provides an overview of the current landscape of corporate governance along with the major rules and director duties applicable to the board of directors. The book\'s latter chapters contain a series of five scenarios common to the board of directors that are presented as a set of Board Challenges involving the tensions often found in board work.In Giving Voice to Values in the Boardroom, the author, Cynthia E. Clark, provides practical strategies for board members and other constituents of corporate governance to deal with these challenges. These cases are designed to help users of the book implement prescripting and action planning. Each case will also have discussion questions about the stakes and stakeholders, common reasons and rationalizations and examples of how firms and governance professionals have handled similar board challenges. This is not a book of antiracist theory but antiracist tactics - tactics that anyone, of any race, can use to strike a blow against injustice. Antiracism is not about what we feel but what we do, and there are specific techniques we can use to create a just world.Antiracist strategies are skills that can be learned just as we learn skills for public speaking or hitting a baseball. In these pages, you - whether a person of color or white - will find a playbook for leading your workplace, organization, or community through transformative change in the wake of an act of explicit racism. You\'ll learn to play antiracist rhetorical chess, and to anticipate and effectively respond to the discursive moves of people who don\'t understand bigotry, aren\'t aware of it, are in denial of it, or even actively uphold it - so that you can advance justice goals. You\'ll get a blueprint of how to dismantle systemic racism community by community, workplace by workplace, and organization by organization - and examples of what not to do.This book is aimed at people who are conscious of the reality of racism and want to end it but may not know how. It clearly shows how anyone can make an effective, significant, and measurable impact on racism through strategic action.
