ELEV-FP 003 Business Ethics
The following is the course description for the Business Ethics Course:
A company’s ethics will determine its reputation. Good business ethics are essential for the long-term success of an organization. Implementing an ethical program will foster successful company culture and increase profitability. Developing a Business Ethics program takes time and effort but doing so will do more than improve business; it will change lives.
A company’s ethics will have influence all levels of business and will influence all who interact with the company, including customers, employees, suppliers, competitors, etc. All of these groups will have an effect on the way a company’s ethics are developed. It is a two-way street; the influence goes both ways, which makes understanding the importance of ethics within a business very important.
