    Giving Voice to Values is a research and curriculum development initiative sponsored by The Aspen Institute and the Yale School of Management. Recognition of the fact that we are all capable of speaking and acting on our values, as well as the fact that we have not always done so, is the empowering and enlightening starting point for GVV.

    The "bottom line" of the Giving Voice to Values curriculum is to provide structured opportunities, informed by research, for participants to focus their energy and their intellect on finding ways to implement their values, rather than focusing that same energy and intellect on asking whether their values are actionable.

    Please RSVP to Alex Roberts to participate in May's online discussion.

    Registration is free. All registrants will receive an email with dial-in information.

    CasePlace.org is a program of The Aspen Institute's Business and Society Program.
