•Recognize an ethical dilemma before it becomes a compliance or reputation problem
•Work through competing interests using a consistent decision framework rather than gut reaction
•Apply your organization's code of conduct to gray-area situations like gifts, conflicts of interest, and confidentiality
•Raise and escalate ethical concerns constructively, including how to use reporting channels
Who it's for

What changes on the job
•Judgment calls worked through with a repeatable framework instead of improvisation
•Conflicts of interest and gift situations recognized and disclosed early
•A team more willing to surface concerns before they escalate

Is this a compliance course or a leadership course?
Both. It sits in the hr_compliance track and connects to your code of conduct, but the core skill is practical ethical decision-making that any manager can use.
How long does it take?
About 20 minutes, self-paced. It pairs well with a live workshop where teams talk through real dilemmas from their own work.
Does it tell me the 'right' answer for every situation?
No, and that is intentional. Real dilemmas rarely have one clean answer. The course gives you a way to reason through them and know when to escalate.
