The practice of integrity is plagued by a variety of perceptual deceptions: the illusion of intuition, the invisibility of self-interest, the myth of objectivity and the rigidity of belief, to name a few. Attendees will gain insight on how to avoid common self-deceptions that deflect sound public decision-making. This is the third presentation in NACo's five-part series on Integrity and Civility, featuring Stu Brody, Founder of Integrity Intensive. The series probes beyond common understandings of integrity and civility and teaches distinct skills—a “practice”—for tackling the complex ethical and interpersonal challenges of public life.
