Dr Attracta Lagan — from Managing Values — is a business ethicist, a speaker and a writer. Her life's work focuses on challenging business leaders to act on workplaces cultures. Ethics should be simple and about doing what's right. So why are ethics (particularly business ethics) such an issue for large and small organisations? And why are these issues so often highlighted in the media? Are those in the spotlight bad people, or can good people be ethically blindsided?

The key to leadership during a time of crisis

This is part 2 of a two-part series with Thomas ‘TJ’ Clynch of Civic Mind in Hartford, Connecticut, USA. Thomas founded Civic Mind in 2011 as the political and economic climate of the “Great Recession” created a market in demand for social impact through community organisation, creativity, and collaboration.

In this episode, Thomas dives further into the chequered story behind the redevelopment of Dillon Stadium. This includes how it has led Thomas into legal action with personnel at his local City council – twice! He then goes on to talk about public policy, before sharing his vision for how social equity and economic justice can be leveraged to build more compassionate, progressive and sustainable communities.
