Scenario:  You have been recently hired in the human resources department at the company you have always dreamed of working for. At the end of your first day, your manager on her way out of the office, asks you:

“So...what are 3 things that come to mind when you think of the word “ethics”, as it applies to you personally?”

She asks that you give her your ideas and thoughts on this question in a conversation tomorrow.

How would you respond to your manager re:  this question?

LA 2:  due Thursday, 11:59 pm ET

Consider the quote by Katz and Kahn listed in Theme 2 in the Schedule for week 1.  

Discuss 3 reasons why you believe business ethics will be even more important in the next decade and beyond?

Include in your response, discussion of at least 1 ethical theory (refer to Ethical Theories module in Content).

“It is a commonplace executive observation that businesses exist to make money, and the observation is usually allowed to go unchallenged. It is, however, a very limited statement about the purpose of business"
