Chinese philosophy is far more valuable than ever and in this seminar, we draw from the wisdom of the great sage, Confucius.
We will engage in discussions about cultivating qualities of Benevolence, Honesty, Knowledge, Integrity, Professional behaviour and will distinguish between Values, Principles and Purpose and how we might flourish.
About the workshop series
Find inspiration in these seminars on Professional issues where we bring ethics into action. Theoretical and practical matters will be addressed drawing from the wisdom of Chinese philosophy. Of all the ways you might act, which is the most important? Of all possibilities, which one should you bring into reality? We address such theories which provide you with the skills to …
- Meet the changing conditions and environments within the health profession.
- Distinguish professional codes of ethics, policy and governmental authority from the ethics which are broadly concerned with human well being and the maintenance of a peaceful society, so that all in it may benefit and flourish.
These workshops are designed to be taken as stand-alone sessions or as a series for those wishing to dive deeper.
At the completion of one or all of these seminars you will have a guide to the moral issues and ethical dilemmas found in professional life and how to manage conflicting interests and issues which complicate professional practice and decision making.
