Breaking Down the Barriers: Bringing Initiatives and Reality into Business Ethics Education

Abstract: A new paradigm imposes special demands on business ethics education: (a) merging financial and social imperatives; (b) stemming recurrent scandals without being compliance obsessive; (c) infusing ethics awareness into all areas of business to remain relevant to the real world, motivate students, and keep up with innovations; (d) mediating cross-cultural differences to promote competitiveness and foster positive social integration. However, four barriers—assumptions, goals, disciplines, and context—impede the a… Show more

“…A value-oriented ethics program, on the other hand, is oriented towards aspirations (what we want to be, what we value, the behavior we want to support). Business ethics curricula are often focused on compliance with the law (Canales et al 2010), but some consider this inferior to value-based reasoning with philosophical principles (Jackson 2006). Weaver and Trevino (1999) suggest that these two approaches are not mutually exclusive.…”

“…Inclús, hi ha qui ha considerat la possibilitat de què formar·se com a advocat, a més de ser particularment negatiu per a la salut mental dels estudiants, els faça retrocedir quant al seu desenvolupament moral, donat l'èmfasi de la carrera en les recom· penses extrínseques o purament materials, en lloc de recompenses intrínseques com ara el creixement personal o l'autoestima (Hartwell, 2004). Donat el per· sistent problema de la corrupció, la necessitat de repensar l'educació ètica dels gerents o administradors públics i privats és igualment clara (Jackson, 2006); així com la de parar molta més atenció de què han rebut fins ara a les relacions entre el desenvolupament moral i l'economia, la qual cosa implica que l'edu· cació moral i ciutadana adopte la forma d'una educació per a i mitjançant la controvèrsia (Frisancho i Delgado, 2016;Hess, 2009). Per sort, almenys als Estats Units, el model dels quatre components (Rest, Narvaez, Bebeau i Thoma) ha inspirat algunes iniciatives de renovació de l'Ètica professional en distintes àrees (Bebeau i Monson, 2014).…”
