EDB 9130 - Ethical Issues Confronting Contemporary Business Leaders

3 Credit Hours
Description
This course is cross-listed with PSYC 9320. This course examines ethical issues confronting contemporary business leaders on different levels, including the individual, the group, the organization, the industry, and society. Course content is applied to students’ experiences grounded in the assumption that ethics principally concerns cooperative behavior-abiding by rules, conventions and principles; acting in the interest of both self and others; and exploring and determining with others ends and appropriate means. Considering ethics as a potentially important dimension of every human activity, the course examines different types of cooperation and different forms of ethical inquiry that enable human flourishing. As such, this course strives toward developing comprehensive ethical expertise for business leaders.
