In this episode, Dr. Rushton and I talk about the concept of values discordance, and what happens when a person perceives their personal or professional values to be out of alignment with their organization’s values. We look at the ways values play out in an organization – through leadership, decision making, and budgeting. We dig into the link between values and moral injury, and how ethics considerations need to be a central component of leaders’ wellbeing and leadership strategies. And Dr. Rushton lays out a structure for how leaders can safeguard ethics and values through leadership and safety infrastructure to support expectations and accountability, practice integration, continuous improvement, and competency building.
