Business Ethics as a Core Course in Business Schools? What a novel idea?or do you prefer an Orange Jumpsuit and Handcuffs? ? Motivational Speaker ? Chuck Gallagher Business Ethics and Choices Expert
What a novel idea is right? It seems that what is OBVIOUS sometimes is missed by the masses. Honesty, integrity, and ethics are ? or should be ? the core foundation for which we operate in life. Yet, as Luigi Zingales points out in his article: ?Business School should count ethics as a core course? it appears that all to often those who are at the top of the business food chain seem to forget the core of business fundamentals.

So here?s the deal?if your business school isn?t committed to teaching practical ethics then you can?t expect graduates to apply ethics in practical day-to-day applications.? What is practical ethics ? perhaps it?s ethics applied in such a manner that it keeps you out of an orange jumpsuit and handcuffs.

I think this is a wonderful idea and it?s a painfully obvious concept. But it would be very difficult to implement. We would have to re-educate massive numbers of business faculty, more than a few of which are going to be doubtful of whether or not ethics has a place in business. There are always a certain number of those believing ?It?s a dog eat dog world out there and you better get used to it.
But that one business class devoted to ethics is what?s holding what?s left of the line and not holding it very well. It?s a poetic and noble gesture much like turning an electric fan toward a hurricane to change its path. We in the world of business can do better and should.
