Guest: Shawna Strickland, PhD, CAE, RRT, FAARC, Chief Learning and Engagement Officer, American Epilepsy Society

March is Ethics Awareness Month and we are pleased to welcome Shawna Strickland to discuss establishing and modeling ethical culture.

Psychological safety in the work environment is a benefit of an ethical culture, but it only grows if leadership has created trust and transparency through their own modeled behavior. We discuss codes of conduct, the importance of clear processes and enforcement, and moral blindness. Don't miss this episode that contributes to a clearer understanding of ethics at work.

Episode 319: The Ethics of Star Wars

Host: Cecilia Sepp, CAE, ACNP, LPEC, Principal, Rogue Tulips Consulting

Guest: Craig Polk, MSEE, MBA, Senior Program Manager, IEEE

March is Ethics Awareness Month and we are pleased to welcome back Craig Polk, nonprofit management professional and Star Wars Expert. The Power of Storytelling helps humans share knowledge, lessons, and warnings -- one of the most powerful story series is Star Wars. We discuss the two sides of the Force: is there is a light side and a dark side? Or is it how you use it? Is the Rebellion against the Empire ethical? Or does it depend on who you ask? Was it ethical to take children from their homes to train them to be Jedi warriors? Ethics is a serious topic but we have fun talking about how a story can teach us to make better choices.
