ED 700.305 - The Ethics of Dissent

Institution:

Johns Hopkins University

Subject:

Description:

Organizations and communities expect their leaders to act ethically and develop, promote, and follow the rules by which all the members of their organization are to operate. Leaders cannot exist by merely clinging to established rules. Through readings and discussion of philosophy, history, organizational behavior, and commonly held beliefs, students assess behaviors and processes that inhibit the highest standards of ethics. Students focus on the concept of dissent and the importance of listening to dissenters. They scrutinize various forms of behavior and decision making to distinguish complaint, cynicism, protest, and dissatisfaction from wrongdoing. Notes: This course is only available to students enrolled in Division of Public Safety Leadership programs.
