Effective Business Ethics Programs

Examine a code of ethics from an organization of your choice. 

Research Tip: Organizations often make their business ethics programs, codes of ethics, or codes of conduct public on their websites.  Be sure to include a link to your chosen organization’s business code of ethics in your post.

Consider the following:

  • Why might this organization need a code of ethics?
  • Which elements of effective business ethics systems, as described in your text, are utilized in your chosen organization’s program?
  • How does your chosen company’s code of ethics minimize risk? 
  • What does the organization’s code of ethics say about the organizational culture? 

Be sure to reference your textbook and at least one article or scholarly source to support your findings.  Include the link to your chosen organization’s business ethics program

Must be a MINIMUM of 250 words, not including citings or the question.
