Ethics Are More than a Program
"Ethical cultures go beyond merely complying with government regulations and codes
of conduct; they focus on values, those core beliefs that we live and operate by."
Ethics has become a buzzword in today's business society. But what does it mean
to be an ethical company? In their white paper "Ethics Are More Than a Program,"
Soderquist Fellows Amy Pyles and Christine Wells take a look at recent research
that shows where corporate America is today on the ethics continuum. Their report
evaluates the effectiveness of formal ethics programs, details two case studies
on companies who experienced an ethical breakdown, and concludes by illustrating
the importance of an ethical culture. Read their White Paper and others at the Soderquist Resource
Room. .
