When Values Clash: Understanding Moral Injury at Work (with Meg Hancock)
Monday, 26 January, 2026
What happens when the work you are asked to do conflicts with the values you hold most deeply? In this episode, we explore moral injury at work and examine how it shows up across the higher education workplace and beyond.Our guest, Dr. Meg Hancock, draws from her recent study, Changing Industry: A Qualitative Study on Moral Injury within Former Sport Employees, which uses college athletics as a powerful case example. Through conversations about NIL, the transfer portal, and increasing commercialization, the discussion opens up to a broader look at how organizational change, value misalignment, and institutional pressures can leave employees feeling disillusioned or morally compromised in many professional settings.Together, we unpack what moral injury looks like, why it is different from burnout, and what leaders and employees across industries can learn from these experiences. Dr. Hancock joins us to share her research, insights, and practical takeaways for navigating values-based conflict at work.Learn more about The Pipeline Project here.Send a CARDGram: https://tinyurl.com/CARDGramsCheck out the Employee Success Center website here.
