Institute for Global Ethics Appoints New Communication Specialist

As a communication specialist, Cisar will be assisting in a variety of projects to promote the organization and further its mission to help guide people through "right-versus-right" ethical decisions.

“We are fortunate to have retained a new team member with a background in storytelling to assist with communicating the value of the applied ethics education work we do,” said IGE’s President and CEO, Anthony J. Gray.

Cisar has wide-ranging coverage experience as a reporter, from pop culture to crime. She has won numerous awards for her feature writing and news coverage, notably for a series of articles on a triple homicide that shook a small Wisconsin community.

Her work in journalism over the years has put her in a position to frequently consider and act on decisions of ethical news judgment. Her freelance-writing work in strategic communication has examined ethics through another lens — the intersection of ethical management and business success.

“I’m excited to help IGE further its mission to bring ethics into the cultural dialogue through education and make ethics an integral part of daily life,” Cisar said. “Ethics is a fascinating study of how we arrive at the decisions we make, and as a journalist, I’ve always been drawn to stories of how people navigate tough choices.”

Cisar is a 2007 graduate of Edgewood College in Madison, Wis., with a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and a minor in Theater.
