Title:
Moral benefit: The potential positive outcomes of organisational and individual ethics
Talk description:
This incubator presentation will describe two studies which link increased ethical clarity with enhanced meaning and wellbeing. This work brings together moral psychology and positive psychology to propose ethical clarity as an alternative path to wellbeing. Tarli will also discuss how such considerations may be applied to the work context and outline the proposed concept of moral benefit – the positive outcomes for organizations and workers that come from working in line with ethics.

Research is the heart of Positive Organizational Scholarship (POS), and we want to make sure that we support each other in developing high quality research. To that end, we created the Adderley Positive Research Incubator for sharing and encouraging POS-related research ideas that are at various stages of development.
