Ethics and Ethics Management
5 cr
This is a Master’s level advanced course that requires applicable higher education studies in the field. Please also check prerequisites.
Ethical Governance and Ethical Management are getting things done in accordance with the relevant moral, values and principles. But what are values and principles? How do they work in practice? And what is ethical management?
The moral and ethical aspect of ethical management has gained importance in the last years, not only because of ever new corruption and conflicts of interest scandals. The growing interest in the issue has led to many questions and doubts: Are public policies effective in the fight against corruption, conflicts of interest and unethical behavior? How does changing government by itself impact on these developments? Which moral values, norms and principles matter? Do they work in daily life? And, what do we know about the development of unethical behavior? What is unethical behavior at the workplace? What can we do about it? What can managers do in order to install an ethical culture? How is it possible for leaders and employees to find the best solutions in concrete daily life dilemmas? What is moral reasoning at work? Are we not overstressing the impact and importance of ethics at work?
Such questions will be addressed in our course.
