The Leading with Ethics and Compliance Course equips professionals with the leadership courage, ethical frameworks, and compliance knowledge needed to lead with integrity — building organisations where trust, accountability, and responsible decision-making are embedded at every level.
Ethical leadership is not simply about following rules. It is about the values leaders model, the decisions they make under pressure, and the culture they create around them. This course addresses all of that — from self-knowledge, courage, and limiting behaviours, through emotional intelligence, influence, and trust-building, to ethical objectivity, compliance governance, and corporate citizenship.
Across five focused days, delegates examine real examples of ethical and unethical leadership, develop a personal ethical decision-making framework, and explore how governance, compliance, and social responsibility connect to long-term organisational success.

Common questions about our training courses
This course is designed for leaders, managers, compliance professionals, and governance specialists who want to strengthen their ethical leadership capability and develop the frameworks to build integrity-driven cultures within their organisations. It is equally valuable for professionals navigating ethical dilemmas in their current roles and those preparing for greater leadership accountability.
Day 1 focuses specifically on leadership courage — examining self-knowledge, values, beliefs, and the limiting thoughts and behaviours that prevent leaders from acting with full integrity. Delegates develop a clearer understanding of what drives their own leadership behaviour and leave with practical strategies for putting their values into consistent, visible action.
Day 4 is dedicated to the challenges of ethical leadership — covering how to identify and navigate ethical dilemmas, apply a structured ethical decision-making guide, and benchmark current practice against best practice standards. Delegates leave with a clear, repeatable framework for approaching complex ethical situations with confidence and consistency.
No specialist compliance background is required. The course approaches ethics and compliance through the lens of leadership — beginning with personal courage, values, and behaviour before progressing to governance frameworks and corporate citizenship. Delegates from diverse professional backgrounds will find the content accessible, personally relevant, and directly applicable to their leadership roles.
Day 2 addresses the relational and emotional dimensions of ethical leadership — covering emotional intelligence, building rapport, affective contagion, developing others as leaders, and establishing trust. Delegates learn how ethical culture is not created through policy alone, but through the daily behaviours and emotional tone that leaders model and reinforce within their teams.
Emotional intelligence is positioned as a core ethical leadership capability — enabling leaders to understand their own emotional responses, manage affective contagion within teams, build genuine rapport, and exercise influence with integrity rather than through authority or power. Delegates develop these skills through reflective exercises and practical application throughout Day 2.
