emotional intelligent

Last week, in Part 1 of this Assignment, you defined what it means to be an authentic, emotionally intelligent, inclusive manager and identified your core beliefs and values. This week, for Part 2 of the Assignment, you will reflect on your personal and professional values, analyze how your values inform your managerial ethics, and develop a personal code of ethics to guide decision making and behavior in a managerial role. Additionally, you will explore how you will use these ethics in influencing positive social change.

To complete Part 2 of the Assignment, you will assume the role of a manager in the following scenario:

Your peer mentoring group for managers held its first meeting last week, during which you and other managers shared your thoughts on authenticity, equity, inclusivity, and how your values and beliefs have been shaped throughout your life.
At the end of the meeting, your master mentor explained that each of you will now use these thoughts and reflections to 1) develop your personal code of ethics and 2) use your skills and abilities to influence positive social change.

As you prepare your write-up, be sure to cover all items outlined, including the incorporation of references to appropriate academic sources, such as those found in the Learning Resources or those in the Walden Library.

To prepare for this Assignment:

• Reflect on the definitions you described last week, as well as the values and beliefs you identified. Consider how these ideas might combine to form your personal code of ethics as a manager.
• Additionally, consider how you might use this personal code of ethics, as well as other management and leadership skills (e.g., authentic leadership, emotional intelligence) to be an effective agent for positive social change.
• Locate at least two examples of personal codes of ethics (or codes of conduct) online.

Creating Your Personal Code of Ethics
