The winning paper receives an opportunity to present at the ABEN Conference in 2025 and a $1000 bursary and the waiving of the ABEN conference registration fee. For further information see https://aben.org.au/jan-schapper-scholarships/ \nWhether you’re early in your candidature\, an early career researcher\, or deep into writing\, this workshop will offer practical strategies and inspiration for high-impact academic work. \nSave the date for Thursday 12th June (11:30 am – 12:30 pm (AEST)) \nPlease join us via Zoom- https://utas.zoom.us/j/88144648166?from=addon \nProfessor Edward Wray-Bliss\nProfessor Edward Wray-Bliss has pursued a fascination with ethics – with the deepest values that make us who we are and with questions of how these sit in tension with our professional and organisational lives – over an academic career spanning more than 25 years. Since receiving his Doctorate from the University of Manchester in 1998\, Edward has held academic positions at universities across Australia and the UK\, including those of Macquarie University\, Deakin University\, University of Technology Sydney\, Essex University\, Nottingham University\, Salford University\, Stirling University\, and Edge Hill University. He was appointed the Stan Perron Professorial Chair of Business Ethics at Edith Cowan University in 2023. \nEdward’s business ethics research is explicitly Critical. It is strongly informed by the intellectual traditions of Critical Theory and Twentieth Century Continental Philosophy\, is methodologically reflexive and qualitative\, and is concerned with denaturalising ethically problematic business and academic practices\, discourses\, and debates. He has written upon a range of topics including modern slavery\, workplace sex discrimination\, leadership practice\, the legacies of religion for business\, drug testing and drug and alcohol policy in the workplace\, research ethics\, evil and organisational practice\, and the intersections of love and capitalism. He has been closely involved with the ABEN conference and community since 2010.

SUMMARY:Mid-Year Conversation 2026
DESCRIPTION:Mid-Year Conversation – 4 June\, 9.00-11.00am AEST \nTopic: ‘Where is it going to end?’: The ethics of leadership in the tech sector – from Steve Jobs to Elon Musk \nSpeaker: Dr Scott Taylor\, Professor of Leadership & Organisation Studies\, University of Birmingham \nLink: https://charlessturt.zoom.us/j/65677811058?pwd=Qsl8HCJgtIOVi0uIQRAmmPrIum4KSu.1 \nMeeting ID: 656 7781 1058 \nPasscode: 884885 \nContact: Alain Neher (aneher@csu.edu.au) \n  \nOverview \nBusiness leadership is increasingly intertwined with socio-political leadership\, as high-profile corporate leaders leverage their wealth\, power\, and celebrity status to intervene in state governance\, including to the benefit of authoritarian state leaders. Such CEO activism raises significant ethical questions about their role in leading organisations and in democratic societies\, including the possibility that the paradigmatic contemporary leadership of the tech sector is based on fascism’s core philosophical tenets (Matten\, 2025). To explore this proposal\, this research focuses on the most prominent corporate leader of this moment\, Elon Musk\, the companies he owns or leads\, and two protest movements problematising his current political beliefs and management practices: the ‘Tesla Takedown’ grassroots movement\, and Tesla mechanics currently striking in Sweden. \n  \nThe presentation draws on research published with Emma Bell (Stockholm School of Economics\, Sweden) and research in progress with Emma and German Bender (Stockholm School of Economics\, Sweden).
