How Missing Ethics Makes a Mess of Organizations
Season 10 Episode 23
Guest: Greg Moran, C-level leadership executive & consultant
The business landscape is littered with fallen firms of questionable ethics. Enron is just one example. But the stumbles of today’s organisations – from Boeing to Columbia University – may be rooted in the lack of a clear ethical framework from the top.
That’s the thesis of guest Greg Moran, who lays out the evidence with host Maureen Metcalf in this episode. It’s not mere philosophical debate; as Enron showed, missing a formal ethical code is a very real existential threat.
Here’s what Greg and Maureen cover:
- The distinction you need to know between morality and ethics;
- Why it’s concerning that so many college grads haven’t seriously pondered their values as they enter your workforce; and
- The critical role ethics play in getting your organization through a crisis.
