BUSINESS CHALLENGE
One of the key roles for management and governance practitioners is the establishment and enforcement of ethical standards for their workplace. This two-day programme provides practical ideas and guidance for those who wish to craft, introduce and maintain effective standards for ethical conduct. The programme is highly thought-provoking and intellectually challenging, since it immerses the participants in a variety of true ethical dilemmas which they need to resolve through ethical choice-making. The programme will subsequently explore how the ethical choices can be converted into practical standards of ethical conduct for their workplace.

An exploration of the philosophical concept of ethical behaviours or decisions.

An exploration of the practical ways in which professional and business ethics can be introduced or enhanced in the participants’ realm of responsibility.

To demonstrate or assess the importance and potential impact of ethical behaviours and decisions, this programme uses true events that provide ethical dilemmas or acts of ethical misconduct common in the workplace.
