Topics
Neil Malhotra: 本书探讨了企业伦理在过去30年的演变,从股东价值模型转向利益相关者模型,并提供了在复杂环境中领导组织的切实可行的建议。作者结合心理学、哲学、经济学和政治学等多个领域的知识,为读者提供了分析和解决伦理问题的框架。 Malhotra还强调了沟通技巧在伦理决策中的重要性,特别是理解不同个体的道德基础,并根据他们的视角来调整沟通策略。他认为,有效的沟通不是简单地告诉别人他们错了,而是要倾听、理解,并尝试从对方的角度出发来构建论点。 在沟通策略方面,Malhotra建议使用“道德基础理论”,理解不同个体在道德判断上的差异,并根据他们的道德基础来调整沟通策略。他认为,如果想让那些重视自由的人接受一项政策,就应该从自由的角度来论证这项政策的好处,而不是仅仅强调这项政策如何减少危害。 最后,Malhotra还分享了他对史蒂夫·乔布斯的欣赏,认为乔布斯是一位优秀的沟通者,因为他深刻理解苹果公司的核心价值观,并能够清晰地向他人传达这些价值观。 Ken Shotts: Shotts 强调领导者不应该假设组织成员都与自己共享相同的核心价值观,要识别和管理组织内部价值观的差异。他建议领导者应该通过反思和书写来识别自身的核心价值观,并鼓励团队成员也进行同样的练习。 Shotts 还指出,组织应该允许在价值观上存在分歧,并鼓励成员表达不同的观点。他认为,虽然这可能会带来一些不适和冲突,但它能够创造一个更开放和自由的组织环境。 在评估行为是否符合价值观方面,Shotts 提到了三种测试方法:清晰界限规则、纽约时报测试和朋友和家人测试。他认为,这些测试可以帮助人们在面对复杂情境时做出符合自身价值观的决策。 此外,Shotts 还强调了情境化社会环境和规范对道德行为的影响,他建议人们应该有意识地选择自己所处的环境,并设法摆脱与自身价值观相悖的环境。他认为,人们应该认识到,他们所处的环境会塑造他们的行为,甚至塑造他们的人格。 Matt Abrahams: 作为主持人,Matt Abrahams 贯穿始终,引导两位教授展开讨论,并提出一些关键问题,例如如何评估行为、情境化社会环境对道德行为的影响以及有效的沟通策略。他积极参与讨论,并分享了他自己的观点和经验。

Shownotes Transcript

“A mistake that some leaders make is to assume that the people in your organization share your core values. Some of the time some of them do, but there's a bunch who don't, and those are the most difficult sorts of situations.” 

In this podcast episode, Political Science professors Neil Malhotra and Ken Shotts sit down with host and lecturer Matt Abrahams, to discuss how to lead others whose values may not align with your own. 

“The most effective thing you can do is to understand the other person's story and frame the language and arguments around them. And I think kind of this is what framing is about, it's fundamentally about being empathetic.”
