The Olivet College of Business delves into the ethical
aspects of individuals and corporate decision-making in the marketplace
with this quarter's Ethics and Responsibilities course. Led by OCB
faculty member Maria George, this course is part of the Olivet College of Business MBA curriculum.
George will guide the participants towards better
understanding of acquisition and utilization of resources for making
ethical decisions within the context of managerial practice. Through
this course students will be able to better understand, acquire, and
utilize Christian-based ethical guidelines and to discover what is the
highest and ultimate end.
"Ethics is a core principle in business as well as faith.
In a corporation, managers and employees are responsible for adhering to
core underlying values which will influence all decisions throughout
the value chain," states George.
"Choosing what is moral may involve rejecting the route
that will bring in the largest profits. Living justly and adhering to
ethical values means walking the straight and narrow path. In one's
personal life as well as in business, individuals make better decisions
if they live by a principle-based life, which will guide a sound vision
of human flourishing,.. As individuals and as corporations our goals
ought to demonstrate a commitment to moral standards beyond ourselves.
Participants should be able to hone ethical ideals by which all
activities in their public and private lives can be assessed, " adds
George.
Maria holds an MBA degree as well as a Master's Degree in
Ethics and Journalism. She has had a rich working and teaching
experience in business law.
