Description:

There is a lot of scandal in the world these days, but one shocking is how the #MeToo movement has included accounts from the aid world.  Okay, I am not living under a rock and I know that these things happen, but how can we minimize risk of sexual harassment and exploitation in the aid world?  I think a great place to start is by creating a values based organization, and the cost of not doing so can be reputation leading to loss in respect, funding and of course potential legal disputes.   

My guest Kwesi Formson has been shaping the culture of his organization since hired, and has used some innovative ways to not only help the existing team but in hiring too.  I think you will find this episode useful, including the following:

  • Examples of mistakes that have cost organizational reputation 
  • How your global mission may vary according to local context
  • How to begin creating a values based culture with an existing team
  • Ideas on how to understand your staff's values
  • Tips to attract and hire staff that align with your team or organization's values
  • Ways to motivate existing team to take team or organization's values seriously
