In the first part of this session, we will become acquainted with what ethical leadership entails and discuss three sets of decision-making skills ethical leaders can apply when faced with organizational challenges, whether they are systems-based or interpersonal. In the panel, we will do a deep dive into the various components that make up purpose, and our three amazing panelists will discuss through their own experiences how their personal sense of purpose relates to the shaping of their professional identity and how they lead their respective organizations. It’s going to be a great session. #purpose #ethicalleadership #leadership Emory University Emory University School of Law 

You cannot create history without first acknowledging those who paved the way. Honoring the work of those who came before me is essential in creating lasting change. Let's be intentional and authentic in our efforts to fill the gap between communities and law enforcement. It's not always easy, but the rewards of creating positive impact are worth it. Let's continue paying it forward. #beintentional #beauthentic #payingitforward

Those of us in the legal world, and specifically those of us that do dispute resolution, know and appreciate the power of WORDS. I loved this article written by Bill Bay, the current ABA President, as he shared words that were true then and resonate true today. It is worth a read!

I’m excited to share that I will soon be joining Medical Teams International to serve as President & CEO. Fundamental to even the notion of “human rights” is the deeper truth of equality—that all humans, simply because they are human, are entitled to certain basic rights. Not because of what they have done, or the color of their skin, or where they live. Simply and only because of who they are—human. Likewise, a core tenet of my faith is that every human is divinely created, made in the image of their Creator. The vast diversity of humankind is itself a reflection of the vastness of God. And because of this, every human, as an image bearer of God, is of eternal significance and worth. Every single one. We live in an age where the competition for our eyes, our hearts, and our minds is unrelenting. So if you are anything like me, it is easy to forget in the swirl of news feeds and stories the very brutal reality faced by millions of humans. Over 120M humans have been forcibly displaced from their homes because of war, persecution, violence, and natural disasters. That figure has been increasing every year for well over a decade. Over 120M humans who find themselves stateless, homeless, often pushed into the most remote and isolated areas where they can so quickly be forgotten. I am honored to be given the opportunity to lead an organization that, for nearly 50 years, has not forgotten. Medical Teams goes the literal last mile to draw near to millions of suffering and vulnerable humans, providing world-class and life-saving care to the whole person, honoring their humanity, equality, and dignity. With over 2,500 staff and a vast network of volunteers and partners around the world, Medical Teams provides direct care and services to over 4M humans a year. As I embark on this transition, I am filled with deep gratitude, especially for the place I am leaving. IJM has been a foundational part of my life for over 20 years, and my employer for almost 11 years. My experiences with and at IJM have shaped me deeply, both personally and professionally. While it’s hard to leave such a special place, I feel a great sense of peace and excitement for the future, and I am eager to lead Medical Teams into its next chapter!

The Hon. Craig Manson, '81, was the first Black editor of the University of the Pacific Law Review at McGeorge School of Law. In this video, he explains how McGeorge School of Law prepared him to serve in a a variety of legal jobs throughout his career, including a military lawyer, a professor, a judge, and many more. He was inspired to go to law school because he observed how there were things going wrong in the world, and he wanted to fix them. #McGeorgeProud https://lnkd.in/gAjqbKQ2

Another great article posted by the Director of Second Look Network at The Sentencing Project regarding use of clemency powers to address excessive sentences. The number of older people in State & Federal prisons is increasing faster than any other age group. How could anyone claim that the point of incarceration was to incapacitate the truly dangerous when there are more people older than 55 in US prisons (165,000) than there are people in the high-crime range of 18-24? Geriatric healthcare in prison is both disgraceful and expensive. It costs on average, 3x more to incarcerate an older person than a younger one. Governor Andy Beshear could help alleviate the excessive costs mass incarceration has incurred on Kentucky as a proponent for second chances, and providing additional resources to protect public education and access to affordable healthcare-basic rights to the citizens of the Commonwealth. #SecondLookLaws #FreeKarenBrown
