2023 Moral and Ethical Leadership Conference

Timeless Perspectives in Leadership

To further our mission to “promote moral and ethical leadership,” the Salt Lake Chapter of the BYU Management Society (BYUMS) held its inaugural Moral and Ethical Leadership Conference (MEL) in Salt Lake City, UT nine years ago. Drawing from business, government, and education leaders year after year, its purpose is to provide the inspiration, education, and connections that our attendees need to explore the role of morals and ethics in a globalized world.

We will hear from speakers and scholars on ethics and on our theme, "Timeless Perspectives in Leadership".

This year's conference is scheduled to take place at the Zions Technology Center, with the central theme being "Timeless Perspectives in Leadership." This thematic choice draws parallels with President Merrill J. Bateman's inaugural seminar for the BYU Management Society, which was entitled "New Perspectives in Management."

Come hear from esteemed guest speakers, including...

• Gary Herbert - 17th Utah Governor
• Abby Cox - Utah First Lady
• Sheri Dew - American Author, Publisher & Executive Vice-President of Deseret Management Corporation
• TC Christensen - LDS Cinematographer (Fighting Preacher, 17 Miracles, Ephraim's Rescue, The Cokeville Miracle & more)
• Jennie Taylor - Major Brent Taylor Foundation & Civilian Aide to the Secretary of Army for Utah
• Virginia Pearce - Director of Utah Film Commission
• Boyd Matheson - Opinion Editor for Deseret News & Host of KSL-TV Sunday Edition Show
• Nathan Osmond - Professional Entertainer, Osmond Second Generation Performer & Business Entrepreneur 
• and More!

By attending, we hope to support our local chapter's effort to "Grow Moral and Ethical Leadership Around the World." The BYU Management Society has 80+ chapters around the world and by participating in the Salt Lake chapter, you are a part of a greater network. You have the opportunity to:

• Leverage your ability to influence reversing the decline of moral standards
• Expand your sphere of influence and advance your leadership opportunities
• Provide you with a means of developing and deepening relationships with others who share your values

Therefore, we seek to envision, create, and sustain an organizational structure that meets that need. We likewise seek to affiliate with individuals and institutions that can accelerate our ability to fulfill our vision. Additionally, our chapter provides student scholarships. Donations help us fund our scholarship efforts, pay it forward here. Thank you for your generosity and support of our student scholarships.
