Understanding Ethics and Values Virtual Workshop Script (2020)Slide 1: Title SlideHello and welcome to the Career and Leadership Development Center’s Understanding Ethics and Values Virtual Workshop. Knowing how your values and ethics can influence your actions is the key to self-awareness By engaging in this virtual workshop you will get a chance to delve more deeply into the gray of ethical leadership and learn the power values can have in decision-making, as well as the way ethics drive our multidimensional community.Slide 2: Social Change Model?In the CLDC, we house our leadership training in the Social Change Model of Leadership because it was created with the college undergraduate in mind.??According to this leadership theory, the?keys to creating positive social change is by working collaboratively,?understanding your and your?group’s values and always be?considerate of?how you, your group and your community will be involved in the change you?plan to?lead.??Slide 3:? Individual Values??According to the Social Change Model of Leadership,?individual values play a large role in the way a leader can begin to work towards positive social change.?Individual Values are a driving force in how you interact with others and how to overcome obstacles when it comes to empathy.??Knowing yourself is the most important tool in beginning the journey of understanding others.???Slide 4: ValuesLet’s discuss values in detail. The general definition of values can be seen in the sentence listed on your screen. Values are those core beliefs that guide and motivate your attitudes and actions.Slide 5: Values The definitions of values we use in the CLDC are as follows…Values are individualized, vary from person to person and are based on life experiences and personal beliefs.Do you already know your top values?How does having different values affect your communication with others?How have your different experiences affected the values you use to have?Thinking deeply about your personal values can sometimes be a difficult place to start if you have never thought of them before. So, let’s start with something outside of your own experiences to begin this discussion of values.Slide 6: Disney Let’s start with looking at a few examples of organizational values that are more prominent in our world.When looking at this picture that connects with the Walt Disney Company, what can you immediately imagine are their values. How do you know? How do they market their values?Slide 7: DisneyLet’s look at the Walt Disney Company’s values they list in their mission statement. Did any of these words come your mind when you first saw the name and picture on the previous slide?In most instances, organizations not only know, but also live by their values. Let’s look at an example that may be closer to home.Slide 8: Ohio University ValuesWhat do you think Ohio University’s values are? How do you know? How does Ohio University market its values to you as a member of the community?Let’s take a look at what we know are Ohio University’s values.Slide 9: Ohio University ValuesAs you can see on the screen, these are Ohio University’s values, often referred to as the 5 C’s.CharacterCommunityCommitmentCivilityCitizenshipHow do you see students, faculty and staff living these values? Do you feel you live these values as a member of our OHIO community? Which values seem to stand out away from others on this list as something you see more regularly in our community?It’s important to recognize that values play a large role in not only what you think or believe, but also in the way you interact with others and engage in your community. Now that we have thought through some organizational values, let’s get back to you and think more deeply about what you value as an individual.Slide 10: Defining Values Activity For this activity, you will need to refer to the worksheet that corresponds with this video. The title of this worksheet is the Values Sort worksheet. For the next few minutes you are going to reflect on your values and narrow down your list to your top five core values. Before you move on in this video, take a few minutes to pause and circle all of the values you feel are most important to you on this worksheet.PAUSE this video now to circle those items.Slide 11: Values Activity Narrowing Next, let’s narrow this list a little. PAUSE this video to beginning narrowing to your top 15.Slide 12: Values Activity Narrowing Further Just a few more times and we will have your list down to your top five.PAUSE this video now to narrow your top 15 to your top 10.Slide 13: Values Activity Final NarrowingFinally, narrow your top ten list to your top 5. This is when you have to make some compromises and think deeply about what values mean more to you that you feel drive you and your interactions with others.PAUSE this video now to narrow to your top 5.Slide 14: Personal ValuesCongratulations! You have successfully narrowed down to your core values. These are values that you don’t ever compromise and are often at the core of how you make small and large decisions in your life.Slide 15: Review the SCML element of Community Values As we discussed earlier, your individual values play a large role in how you interact with others and begin to think through creating social change. Another area of values that plays an important role in social change is community values. It’s important to understand what your community values in order to know how you fit into your community as a leader and lead effectively to create positive change. Now that you have learned about individual values, we are going to go over Ethics which are directly influenced and created from community values. Slide 16: Ethics Ethics are societal value judgments, codes or rules to live by according to an individual’s community.Slide 17: Codes of Ethics Let’s think about some codes of ethics that you may already know. Some of these are more common than others or are used more frequently in some social circles.For example, have you heard of the Hippocratic Oath or the Golden Rule? How about the Bro Code or the Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts Honor Code? All of these codes are things that are socially constructed, but often drive the way our society reacts or engages with us. Knowing your own societies ethics can play a large role in the way you engage as a leader or try to create social change that may go against these ethics in some way.Slide 18: Golden RuleNow, let’s dig a little deeper into one of these codes – The Golden RuleAccording to the Golden Rule, you should treat others the way you would want to be treated.Slide 19: Case StudyWe are going to read a case study to help us think about this code of ethics.CASE STUDY Avery works for a boss who believes strongly in the Golden Rule. Sometimes opportunities arise where her boss can send employees out of state for the weekend to meet with potential clients. Avery's boss thinks that everyone will appreciate this opportunity because it can help her employees gain clients, which will help her and the company make more money. However, Avery's boss does not take into consideration that everyone might not value money and these opportunities. Avery is a single parent, and every time she is asked by her boss to meet potential clients out of state, she must find a babysitter for the weekend, and she values her time with family over money.What are some things that Avery's boss could do differently to consider her employees values? How are Avery’s boss’s values impeding on her values?What could Avery do to advocate for her own values in this situation?How ethical would it be if Avery’s boss continued to ignore Avery’s values after knowing the difference in their values? When thinking about the way some people interpret ethics or societal norms and rules versus the way you may think about them, it’s important to be critical and have empathy. There are some ethics that may even go against your values, in which case you will need to determine if you want to continue to be a part of that community or advocate for change. This is a big part of what it takes to be an ethical leader.Slide 20: Ethical Leadership Let’s go over some of the principles of ethical leadership and how this pertains to your personal values and your community’s ethics. Ethical leadership is an application of values and ethics to leadership that are grounded in current ethical leadership theories – ref. Bill Donahue, PhDThese principles include respecting others, serving others, showing justice, manifesting honesty, and building community.Slide 21: Recap of Ethics and ValuesFinally, let’s take a few seconds to review what we have discussed today in this video:We know that values are created from personal beliefs and adapted from personal experiencesEthics are societal norms and values driven by your community, often codes to live byHowever, there is a balancing act between personal values and the ethics of your society. Making sure you are aware of them personally and from a broader perspective can help you make more informed decisions and act appropriately depending on where you are and the situations you find yourself in while at Ohio University and beyond.A strong ethical leader keeps in mind their personal values, as well as the ethics of their community before making decisions that will affect their constituency. And remember, being a leader is not just about power, but about the responsibility of what comes with that power through respect, service, justice, honesty and building community within a group.Slide 23: HandshakeIf?you would like to speak with a coach in the CLDC?to?virtually?discuss your career and leadership goals and experiences, we are available to have these discussions with you in a 30-minute session.?
