Our outreach and pedagogy are driven by evidence-based solutions and are constantly evolving. As such, we also conduct and support high-quality research on topics relating to leader development, leadership principles, ethical culture, ethical climate, ethical decision-making, and ethics education. We see our center as a vehicle for connecting leadership and ethics scholars to identify best practices and shed light on the importance of principle-based leadership.
Our researchers seek to extend current theories around leadership and ethics by exploring fundamental questions in these areas, such as “What is principle-based leadership?” and “How does principle-based leadership influence organizations and their people?” Answers to these questions become guides to organizations and present the frameworks for practical solutions.

Our research team builds on its discovery research to test specific practices for building strong leadership and ethics organizational foundations. Further, our team works directly with organizations to identify and test tailored solutions addressing your unique challenges.
Why Use Our Applied Research
Our experienced researchers relate pedagogical theory to identify and test models for preparing K-12, secondary, and post-secondary students to be principle-based, ethical leaders. We also work directly with organizations to apply these solutions to unique organizational environments by way of training.
