This seminar is Part III of a three part series in partnership with AASP.

Understand the impact of having strong ethical guidelines in place to promote and maintain long-lasting relationships with donors and other constituents. Explore individual, institutional and professional ethical questions against the backdrop of AASP's Ethics Statement, AFP's Code of Ethics and CASE's Donor Bill of Rights.

With these resources as guides, together with a multilayered decision-making tool for ethical dilemmas, common challenges that advancement professionals face will be vetted, encouraging consideration of consequences. When scenarios of the "What If" genre are explored, audience surveys will help bring us to consensus about the optimum courses of action to take.

• Hear common rationalizations for rash decisions and learn how to move beyond them.
