Leadership and Management Development

Leadership and management development has taken on greater importance in recent years for several reasons: costs and risks of recruiting from outside; rise of technology and digital transformations; and a closer look among culture, ethics and how we use technology.

One crucial point to leadership and management development is that everyone on all teams understand the organizational “big picture.” More than anything else this involves defining a very clear picture or vision of the future.

It is also becoming increasingly important for tech-savvy leaders and their organizations to be aware of ethical decision-making’s role with respect to technology disruptors.

It’s not enough to adopt the vocabulary and syntax of technology disruption. Organizations also need to learn to recognize the ethical issues those disruptors may introduce and build the muscle memory to apply a consistent method for identifying ethical courses of action.

Organizations can emphasize to their leaders the importance to build this muscle memory through their commitment to ethical decision-making and by promoting a culture that supports it. The ethical tech mindset reflects the cultural characteristics that leaders and their employees can embrace to support their efforts.

Of course, concerns about the ethics of technologies is nothing new. But as organizations accelerate their use of disruptive technologies throughout their business processes, products and services, organizations must stress to their leaders not to lose sight of the ripple effects—and potential ethical considerations—that result.

With emphasis on digital transformations, every organization is becoming a technology organization. As such, ethical tech matters.

Using technology responsibly requires organizations to apply a consistent method for identifying ethical courses of action.

For example, while disruptive technologies may enable tremendous opportunity for organizations and their leaders to become smarter, the full ramifications of their usage must also be accounted for.

As some leaders are learning, some applications, devices, and systems raise ethical dilemmas each time employees use them. Stories of organizations encountering new challenges related to privacy, algorithmic bias, and a range of other technology-related ethical issues illustrate the reputational and even financial risks for organizations.

The problem in a nutshell is this: Organizations and their leaders seldom develop an overall approach to the ethical impacts of technology use at the start of a digital transformation. As often is the case, companies that don’t consider technology to be their core business may simply assume that these considerations are largely irrelevant, even as they increasingly rely on advanced digital and physical technologies to run their day-to-day operations.

For most organizational leaders, it’s no longer possible to not be enmeshed in technology, no matter the industry or sector. In fact, poll after poll shows that the majority of CEOs believe an effective digital transformation is the key to their organization’s future success.

However, leaders and their organizations simply can’t call themselves technologically savvy if they’re not thinking about the ethical implications of how their employees, customers, and others within their ecosystems are using technologies.
