Abstract

Business ethics is a challenge with three parts: 1) developing managers as moral individuals; 2) building an environment in which standards and values are central to the company''s strategy, just as economic purpose is; and 3) formulating and implementing policies that support ethical performance--as well as safeguards to assure they are observed. The essence of management responsibility is to make decisions when there are no clear choices or absolute answers.
