ethics in personal and
professional life, need no

employees for whom work
ethics is a growing
problem.

taught things like ethics - or is it too late?

How do you train your employees to be ethical to one and
all, whether in the professional realm or personal?
•
A written code of conduct
•
Define ethics to be maintained in an organization.
•
Each employee should have one, including new hires.

Training programs
•
Organizations should focus on training in ethics at the
workplace.
•
A few members from the top level management can lead the
ethics training programs.
23

Performance feedback sessions should be
corrective in nature.
24

Good Behavior should be
acknowledged.

Role model

example for employees to follow.

Here are a few thoughts to get the ball rolling.

Clearly, consistently, and frequently communicate the
desired behaviors and why they are important to the
organization.
28
Model these behaviors as a leader

Hold people accountable for demonstrating these
behaviors on an escalating path
29

Ethics depends on situation.

In spite of training sessions on ethics, enforcement
is ultimately left to the individual.

And finally, it is essential to communicate ethical values
to employees as you are giving them the authority to
take appropriate ethical decision
in any given situations.
