Leading with Moral Authority: Doing the Right Thing for Your Team and Product

Innovative and industry-leading products and services evolve from the hard work of teams that are managed with modern, strategic, and creative leadership techniques.

Unfortunately, the extractive corporate environment that many of us find ourselves in today puts immense pressure on leaders to resort to short-term, reactive, command-and-control-style approaches to interacting with their teams.

We have several options for dealing with this situation while still maintaining our moral authority, but none of them are easy. Each will require courage to do the right thing and empathy for your team members.

In this session, Nicole will share her experiences addressing the extractive business model in her workplaces. We'll also discuss how to recognize such a model in action and what we can do to offset it. You'll leave with concrete steps you can take to do the right thing in the face of corporate pressure to do the opposite.
