Jack Gilbert

Jack Gilbert is Program Director for the Masters of Healthcare Innovation at the College of Nursing and Healthcare Innovation of Arizona State University, and President of New Page Consulting, Inc.

He is a noted expert in leadership and everyday ethical decision-making, an award-winning author, a presenter, and a consultant to multinational corporations. His latest book, Strengthening Ethical Wisdom: Tools for Transforming Your Health Care Organization was published by the American Hospital Association Press in July, 2007.

For the past thirty years, Jack has focused on issues of leadership, large-scale change, and organizational and personal ethics. Over the course of working with hundreds of executives, business leaders, and employees, Jack has observed the phenomenon of ethical erosion. Research shows that it is the small steps and small decisions that lead individuals and their organizations into ethical conflicts, a slippery slope that can ultimately undermine the organization’s viability and credibility.

Jack holds his doctorate from The George Washington University where his dissertation focused on the role of ethics in decision-making. He is a fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives and a member of the National Speakers Association.
