While human resources professionals have always had to navigate workplace issues that are inherently ethical, the tension and discomfort that arise from the navigation of such issues is an element that – particularly in the current climate – demands greater attention.
In this episode of The HR Leader Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Cranlana Centre for Ethical Leadership program director Dr Matt Beard about his work in the ethics space, what we mean by ethical dilemmas, what we’re seeing in the market that may be making it more difficult for HR to navigate such dilemmas, and why there is a “heightened sense” of such challenges.
Beard also reflects on the compounding problems inherent with communication hurdles in the post-pandemic working environment, how better management of ethical dilemmas can and will aid HR teams in dealing with other urgent priorities, the underlying risk of “ethical fading”, practical steps that HR teams can be taking right now, and how HR can get buy-in from other business functions to bolster their capacity to better deal with workplace issues.
