Business Ethic Enhancing Organizational Gov & Prevent Fraud (BEGPF)

What exactly makes a decision ethical? The problem with ethics is that what may seem morally right (or ethical) to one person may seem appalling to another.

This workshop will not provide you with an easy way to solve every ethical decision you will ever have to make. It will, however, help you define your ethical framework to make solving those ethical dilemmas easier.

We’ll also look at some tools that you can use when you’re faced with an ethical decision. And, we’ll look at some techniques you can use so you don’t get stuck in an ethical quandary. Best of all, we’ll look at a lot of case studies so that you can practice making decisions in a safe environment.

Some of the topics that will be covered includes:

• What are ethics? Why bother with ethics?
• Taking your moral temperature
• Kohlberg’s six stages
• Philosophical approaches
• Avoiding ethical dilemmas
• Pitfalls and excuses
• Developing an office code of ethics
