Doing Well by Doing Good

Healthcare leaders regularly find themselves in tough spots while confronted daily with complex value-laden decisions. Should they close a much needed but unprofitable clinic serving underrepresented patients? How should they balance their obligations to patient care with the safety of staff? Should they mandate flu or coronavirus vaccines? How do they balance the need to fulfill their mission while also maintaining the necessary sustainability to do so? Often the ethics component of a decision is not so obvious as those listed above, or we can be completely blind to it. And yet there remain very few programs that work with leaders to develop their ethical muscles and practice responding to ethical challenges they face regularly. This session will provide leaders with tools and resources to engage in ethical decision-making. In doing so, leaders will identify how unaddressed ethics issues impact their institutional commitments and bottom line.
Participants will take a brief, pre-course ethics assessment that includes their interests and desires for the program. During the course, leaders will learn how to apply an ethical decision-making framework to complex decisions and will leave with an understanding of the resources and strategies available to help them better navigate these situations.

• Explain the link between ethics and organizational performance.
• Distinguish ethical responsibilities from compliance, risk and legal liabilities.
