| Updates from GIVING VOICE TO VALUES at University of Virginia Darden School of Business | | | Greetings All! I hope you are well and thriving! I am delighted to share some of the exciting developments with the Giving Voice To Values pedagogy/curriculum for Values-Driven Leadership development! Please do visit www.GivingVoiceToValues.org and www.GivingVoiceToValuesTheBook.com to access the curriculum and learn more. Here are a few more of the highlights, thanks to the intellectual and pedagogical efforts of the GVV Network: | | | Reminder About the New Home for the GVV Curriculum: The GVV cases, readings, exercises and more are now available from UVA Darden Business Publishing. The existing materials will continue to be available for FREE download. [New materials developed after September 2016 will carry a small charge]. The process for accessing the materials has changed. If you have any challenges, please contact me at GentileM@darden.virginia.edu and/or sales@dardenbusinesspublishing.com for support. Faculty-Only Resources: Faculty will be able to access the Faculty-ONLY resources (teaching notes, B cases, etc.) by clicking on a clearly marked link on the GVV Darden Business Publishing page and registering as Faculty. This will be a one-time registration and will result in greater security for the Faculty-Only materials. Upcoming New GVV MOOC: We have begun a new project at UVA Darden to develop a GVV MOOC with projected launch in Fall 2017, to introduce individual learners, faculty and corporate practitioners to the GVV approach. This four-week course will be offered through the Darden/Coursera partnership. Please contact Mary Gentile at GentileM@darden.virginia.edu if you have ideas or questions about this. "I think if you remember nothing else about Giving Voice to Values, you should remember this: that it's about asking and answering a different question...We ask the question, once you know what you think the right thing to do is, how do you get it done effectively?" ~ Mary Gentile | | New European Hub for GVV! We are excited to announce the new "European Hub for GVV" at the Center for Corporate Governance and Business Ethics, FH Wien, University of Applied Sciences, under the guidance of Dr. Markus Scholz, GVV Ambassador. The European Hub can be understood as the European competence center for GVV. They will undertake research in this area (e.g. surveying students and business leaders), create case studies in collaboration with Mary Gentile (cases will be made available through the Darden GVV website) and offer teaching sessions for students inside and outside our university. Moreover they will offer tailored GVV courses for entrepreneurs, business leaders and other decision makers, as well as faculty development for schools and educators who want to use the GVV methodology. New Corporate Outreach for GVV: Building on the exciting GVV project with Unilever Nigeria last year, we will soon be working with Unilever South Africa. In addition, Magnetrol has launched a global organizational introduction to GVV, using both the online interactive modules from Nomadic.fm as well as in-person discussions. Materials have been translated into multiple languages, including Chinese. New GVV Videos: | | Presentations and Workshops | GVV Is On The Road! In the first few months of 2017, we have shared GVV with the McGowan Fellowship; the Sustainability, Entrepreneurship and Ethics convening in Puerto Rico; the University of Applied Sciences at F.H. Wien in Vienna; the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime's Expert Group Meeting on E4J (Educating for Justice) in Vienna; Swarthmore College, Haverford College, and Bryn Mawr College. In addition, GVV was the focus of a keynote address to the Association of Legal Administrators in Denver this year. | | GVV in Russia! Professor Subhasis Ray of XIMB, India will be teaching a course on GVV at St. Petersburg State University. Congratulations, Subhasis! GVV Course: An intensive GVV elective has been piloted at Babson College and adapted for use elsewhere. The course –When Leadership Really Counts: An Action Practicum – has three components: (1) Students are introduced to and experience GVV themselves (2) They develop GVV cases and teaching plans in a functional area or industry of their choice, and then (3) They deliver the material to their peers in a workshop format. This LEARN-CREATE-SHARE model allows students to develop peer coaching skills in enacting their values and allows their institutions the chance to develop a co-branded collection of GVV materials. The course can be offered as a regular course, a half course and/or a two-weekend intensive workshop/course. If you or one of your colleagues would like to offer this course, please contact us for more information: GentileM@darden.virginia.edu | | GVV in Legal Education: Forthcoming new book in GVV Book Series by Carolyn Plump: Voicing Values in the Legal Industry: Effective Advocacy with Integrity.
