Course Description
Modern executives make daily decisions within an increasingly complex ethical environment. Practical Business Ethics is designed to provide managers with the analytic and conceptual tools they need to make rapid, ethically informed, and defensible business decisions. As part of that process, a variety of common ethical situations in business are analyzed in terms of issues that go beyond a firm's legal obligations. Students are expected to integrate their own personal experiences, different ethical theories, key concepts, and what they learn about companies that did, and did not, support ethical business management. Throughout the semester they are also encouraged to respectfully disagree with the instructor, the points of view in the readings, and each other.
