As part of Leadership and Ethics Week 2024, this interactive workshop will offer a unique understanding of how business leaders can effectively assess and engage in sociopolitical activism during periods of unrest. Based upon the groundbreaking research of our facilitator, Management PhD candidate Genevieve Gregorich, the workshop will walk you through her framework for navigating the complexities of balancing personal and business principles, while understanding the perspectives of key stakeholders.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Understand when and why business leaders engage in sociopolitical issues
- Assess the potential consequences of engaging in sociopolitical issues as a business leader
- Draw on a framework for leading through difficult and polarized environments
The Leadership Development Series is sponsored by The Reuben Mark Initiative for Organizational Character and Leadership in partnership with OSA and CMC.
