Values
and Ethics: Situations for Discussion
Lay
a strong foundation for building and maintaining healthy corporate
ethics. Program contains short dramatic vignettes that demonstrate
typical every day situations of employees exhibiting questionable
ethics.
As
your managers struggle with the issues of ethics in the workplace,
they may realize that your employees often do not have a clear
understanding of the difference between ethical and unethical
business practices.
The
success of organizations who train their employees on ethics
offers proof that honesty really is the best policy - for
both your organization and your employees. That’s why
it’s critical for you to clearly communicate exactly
what the ethical and moral expectations are for your employees.
Your organization’s bottom line depends on it!
Values
and Ethics can help your organization reduce wasted time and
money, while increasing employee morale, confidentiality and
productivity.
Synopsis
Values
and Ethics is a series of 12 short dramatic “What Would
You Do?” vignettes. Each situation is followed by a
short video break to allow for group discussion. After each
discussion, you can summarize by communicating your organization’s
policy on the situation presented.
Some
video situations include:
- Using
an organization’s toll-free number, copier and office
supplies for personal use
-
Abusing confidential privileges
-
Wasting company time
-
Not being honest with coworkers and managers
Participants will learn to use the three-step checklist to
decide if each situation is ethical: 1) Is it legal? 2) Is
it a win-win situation? 3) Would you do the same thing if
someone you respected were watching?
