The Ultimate Supervisor Skill:
Creating a Satisfied Workforce
Ethical Leadership
in the Workplace
In these turbulent economic times,
it’s more important than ever for your
workforce to be productive and satisfied.
The research is clear—there’s a direct link
between employee retention rates and
sales growth. Join Cindy Guthrie and
learn how to keep your staff satisfied. Your
efforts will result in higher profits, greater
productivity, and increased customer
retention, and employee satisfaction.
In today’s highly competitive, performance
-driven business climate, regulations are
not enough; professional ethics codes are
not enough; the old model of “business
ethics” is not enough. According to a
recent survey conducted by the National
Association of Corporate Directors and the
American Corporate Counsel Association,
“…the two groups overwhelmingly agree
that the single measure that would most
improve corporate governance is the
establishment by senior management of
an ethical business culture.” A sincere
commitment to creating and sustaining an
ethical business culture in public and
private sectors has never been more
important. Join Keith Dutton and discover
how to determine a personal foundation
for your ethical leadership.

conscious of your choices, and by deliberately blending your thinking plus feelings
to generate better decisions. Everyone has
