Many ethics and leadership issues can be addressed through a variety of formats. Navran Associates characterizes format options in the following way:
Presentations: Informing an audience of emerging trends, issues and principles.
Workshops: Delivering training on a key topic to change individual and organizational knowledge and practices. Seminars are a variation of this format.
Retreats: Highly interactive sessions that combine in-depth exploration with the development of the appropriate course of action for the organization.
