I’m a Toronto-based ethics educator, speaker, and consultant. My goal is to help organizations tame complex ethical issues.
As an ethics consultant, I can help with:
- Ethics education and training;
- Ethics of Leadership;
- Conflict of interest training and policy development;
- Developing your own Code of Ethics or Code of Conduct;
- The values and ethics dimensions of corporate governance;
- Training on the ethical aspects of leadership;
- Assessing the “ethical climate” of your workplace.
- Confidential ethics advice, opinions, and coaching.

More about me:
I have a Ph.D. in philosophy and a proven track record as a communicator. I’m a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Law and Business at Toronto Metropolitan University’s Ted Rogers School of Management, where I’m Director of the Ted Rogers Leadership Centre. I’m a former Chair of my department, former Interim Director of MBA Programs, and former Senior Fellow at Duke University’s Kenan Institute for Ethics. I’m also Editor in Chief of The Business Ethics Journal Review and President of The Journal Review Foundation, the nonprofit I founded to support it.
I’ve provided educational and ethics consulting services to corporate boards, professional associations, hospitals, startup companies, major charitable foundations, and to the Canadian military, and I’ve served as an expert witness in commercial arbitration. I’ve been a keynote speaker at national and international conferences. I’ve been called one of the “Top 100 Thought Leaders in Trustworthy Business Behavior” and I have been declared one of the “100 Most Influential People in Business Ethics,” several years in a row.
For over a decade, I was the author of The Business Ethics Blog, the world’s #1 blog on that topic.
I’m currently serving as Chair of the Canadian Centre for Ethics & Corporate Policy. I’m also an Honourary Fellow of the Real Estate Institute of Canada (awarded in recognition of my contributions to ethics in that industry).
