Developing your own ethical intelligence is one challenge, but embedding ethical intelligence across your organization is an entirely different challenge.  In this course, we explore the role corporate culture has in creating the ethical organization.  In doing so, you will learn about the core values every organization must embody to create a high-performance and ethical culture.

In this course, you learn more than just the ideal corporate culture, we'll also cover the proactive measures you can take to change corporate culture.  Ultimately, the course attempts to ask and answer the question about whether the ethical organization creates another point of competitive advantage.

Learning Objectives
  • Discover how to assess the strength of ethics and the corporate culture of the organization.
  • Explore the value proposition ethics has in creating competitive advantage in the organization.
  • Identify the elements of high performance corporate cultures of any organization.
  • Recognize how to apply a methodology for changing corporate culture.

A great overview reinforcing the importance that ethics plays within an organization. The instructors presented content thoroughly and included excellent supporting materials which can be used for future reference. Linking behaviors to desired outcomes was a key learning.

Quick easy and to the point. Put it into clear, actionable items instead of just theories. I was surprised by several things, especially the matrix on what to do with an employee based on their performance level and their commitment to the values.

Short but full of substance course. It provides a well-rounded explanation of what an ethical organization entails with great examples of the big pictures as well as the details.

Good framework for understanding and building an ethical culture in your business. The case study was a great example of greed and unaccountability.

Good overview of ethics in an organization setting. I think more real world examples would be helpful, not just the big headline grabbing incidents.

This course was a good wrap-up to the series of four courses regarding ethics. The Wells Fargo case was an excellent example.
