Giving Voice to Values: The "How" of Values-Driven Leadership

​Dr. Mary Gentile will share a ground-breaking new approach to preparing business managers and leaders for values-driven action. Drawing on both the actual experience of business practitioners as well as cutting edge research, GIVING VOICE TO VALUES (GVV) fills a long-standing and critical gap in our understanding of how to enable ethical practice. Rather than a focus on ethical analysis, GVV focuses on ethical implementation and asks the question: “What if I were going to act on my values? What would I say and do? How could I be most effective?”

​Giving Voice to Values holds the promise to equip future leaders to not only know what is right — but how to make it happen.

​Dr. Mary Gentile is the author of Giving Voice to Values: How to Speak Your Mind When You Know What’s Right, which offers an action-oriented approach to values-based leadership. Mary is Creator/Director of Giving Voice to Values; (formerly) the Richard M. Waitzer Bicentennial Professor of Ethics at University of Virginia Darden School of Business; Senior Advisor at Aspen Institute Business & Society Program; and consultant on management education and leadership development.
