An ethical decision typically involves choosing between two options: one we know to be right and another we know to be wrong. A defining moment, however, challenges us in a deeper way by asking us to choose between two or more ideals in which we deeply believe – i.e. both are RIGHT! How then should we choose the “optimum” right decision?

On a fateful day of 23rd September 1985, 15 armed foreign pirates landed on the coast of Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia and stormed in the town. The pirates shot at random killing at least 21 people and injuring 11 others. The pirates tried to rob a bank by blowing up the vault, but the explosives were ineffective. Out of frustration, they kidnapped 2 staff of a local bank before leaving Lahad Datu in their speed boats.

Two hours later, the Branch Manager of the bank in Lahad Datu receives a call from the pirates demanding USD 1 million to secure the release of both staff. The Board of the Bank had been notified and the board appointed the Senior Regional Director of the Bank at Kota Kinabalu, Mr Sam to negotiate with the terrorist. The Board informally whispered to Mr Sam that he should not negotiate beyond RM 2 million to avoid any possible sanctions from the government for abetting kidnapping and terrorism. As the events of the story unfolded onscreen, put yourself in the shoes of Sam and how would you resolve defining moments.

Objectives & Outline
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
By the end of the programme, participants will be able to:

Reflect on the fundamental behaviours that create an agile mindset when disruption strikes
Develop your capacity to rewire your mindset to exercise critical thinking
Discover the cognitive biases that impair judgment in a crisis
Assess whether your staff are bulletproof for disruption or crisis moments
PROGRAMME OUTLINE
The course reflects on tools for making critical judgment during a defining moment. A defining moment is a point in your life when you are urged to make a pivotal decision or when you experience something that fundamentally changes you, i.e. they have a transformative effect on your perceptions and behaviour. There are no best practices or leadership manual to refer to, not even sound counsel. It is down to your own personal values and leadership instincts to manage an almost impossible situation.

The programme uses a real-life situation that happened to a senior bank manager during a defining moment. By using real life events, the programme probe you with questions that call for a deeper understanding of your values and belief systems and how they affect your decisions regarding your staff, peers, BOD, organisation and society.
Methodology
This one day programme can be delivered either via face-to-face classroom or webinar
It is interactive using Kahoot, quizzes, polling and discussion of case studies in breakout areas/rooms
