"I have found the programs at GISC
to be an excellent blend of theory
and practice, an opportunity to explore leadership issues with other senior leaders, and a coming together of like-minded people who bring an optimistic attitude to the challenges that face organizations and the world. GISC's Gestalt leadership model provides a foundation for balancing the demands that we face as leaders.
I have strongly recommended the program to others."

EXECUTIVE FORUMS: Ethics, Reputation, and Leadership

A series of three Executive Forums in 2012 starts in January with Setting up New Worlds: Organizing Our Futures, co-sponsored by Bentley University’s Alliance for Ethics and Social Responsibility. In this special session, Dominik Heil, PhD, and Rob Farrands, PhD, continue an inquiry and dialogue with participants started in 2011 on the topic of organizational ontology, ethical leadership, corporate ethos, reputation and strategy.

Subsequent two-day Forum meetings in May and September 2012 will continue to explore different dimensions to this fundamental inquiry into organizing and the practical application of ethical leadership. The outcome of the January program will help shape the agenda of the May and September Forums.

Dates: January 24-26, May 21-23, September 12-13
