The second part of the course aims to help students learn how to work with two different approaches to ethical reasoning:
- A “values” approach (which echoes the “virtue ethics” approach taken by most corporate ethics programs), and

The objective of this course is introducing our students to the centrality of ethics in our mission, and importance of ethical standards in the business leaders’ decision process.
