Ethical Decision Making: The Cutting Edge of Ethics with Leslie Little
In this episode of 'Walk the Talk,' Blake interviews Leslie Little, the founder and CEO of Ethical Decision Making Limited (EDM). Leslie, an Omaha native now based in London, and Ethicspace morning keynote speaker, shares her fascinating career journey, from her early days in finance to her current work in ethical leadership.
Leslie introduces her company's groundbreaking product, which aims to measure and develop 'ethical fluency' in leaders. Based on ten years of research from James Madison University, EDM uses a proprietary methodology to assess ethical decision-making and provide valuable insights to organizations.
Blake and Leslie discuss the alarming rate of CEO failures due to unethical behavior and the need for a shift from short-term profit maximization to long-term value creation. They also explore the challenges of navigating ethical dilemmas in the digital age and the importance of genuine dialogue.
