Business Ethics for the Office

Description

Ethics and morals are often confused for one another and generate a lot of debate and discussion. A major problem is that everyone is different, and for that reason, people will interpret different ethical decisions differently. This may boil down to culture, upbringing or past experiences, but there is something that has shaped the different beliefs that people possess.
This course will help to define your ethical framework to make solving ethical dilemmas an easier process, this framework will be guided by some tools that you can use to make ethical decisions and using case studies to practice making those decisions in a safe environment.
Why Bother with Ethics?
It’s a question that you may hear a lot, but ethics are a good way to create a strong foundation and sustainable growth to any organisation and this must trickle down from senior level directors and management, through to anyone who is working within the company.
Any consumer who sees an ethical approach as part of your office or business is more likely to reward you with positive reviews and loyalty which is important for customer retention.
