Ethics
by leon on May 1, 2007

And we're only four months into 2007.
How does a business steer an ethical course when expanding overseas? It's a question raised here by WP Carey professor Marianne Jennings.
She points to some of the warning signs, like fear and silence, pressure to maintain numbers, weak boards and a culture of conflict. The only way around the problem, she says, is to set very clear policies. Companies must also realize that when they enter a new country, their reputation starts at zero.
But what are the specific steps? I examine that issue when I discuss ways of avoiding integrity land mines.

Ethics and integrity have taken a holiday for the past few years while big business takes advantage of the political leverage it held. Hopefully better days are ahead as the corrupt regimes are gradually ended.
