The event will take place on Thursday, June 6 at 2 p.m. EST at the State Bar of Georgia’s Annual Meeting at the Omni Amelia Island Resort.

Attendees of this event will become acquainted with what ethical leadership entails and learn three sets of decision-making skills ethical leaders can apply when faced with organizational challenges, whether they are systems-based or interpersonal. From an organizational perspective, leaders who incorporate these skills into their decision-making will be able to prevent and/or mitigate ethical breaches; they may also alleviate obstacles to workflow and establish professional expectations to create a positive working culture aligned with the firm’s mission.
