Tuesday 6th March 2012 - 7.15pm for a 7.45pm start
John Strain, Work, Economy and Business Advisor, Guildford Diocese
"What can Christians learn from the deveopment of safety cultures at work, in developing more ethical approaches to business practices?"John will be drawing some parallels between training for safety in aircraft carriers and training in virtue in business life. What do we mean by virtue? How does it differ from following rules? How do we train people in virtue? He will seek to show how more attention to the ethics of virtue could provide an opportunity to reconcile “the glorious liberty of the children of God” that is so crucial to business as well as our moral lives with the need for a sensible approach to rules and moral infrastructures.
