Ethics Book Study Meet: August 2024

This month in August, the EMCC Ethics study group will be focusing on the chapter on Kantian Ethics and how its definition and approach are reflected in the Global Code of Ethics. Along with the Global Code of Ethics, we will be reading Ethics: The Fundamentals by Julia Driver. Participants are requested to purchase and read the books on their own, then join the reflective meet for lively conversations. The purpose of the book study group is following –

• to deep dive into the Global Code of Ethics​
• to deconstruct approaches to the Global Code of Ethics from normative ethics point of view
• to reflectively apply ethical practice in coaching as well as in a world outside of coaching.

This month the study meet will be led by EMCC member and study group participant, Juri Tsurumi. She is an executive coach based in Tokyo and Founder of Monday K.K.
