Description
It is critical to ensure that the next generation of business professionals is prepared for ethical challenges in their careers—especially as the continuing globalization of business and the capital markets requires individuals to work in other countries and within cultures where behavioral norms can often be different from their home culture. The Ethical Compass—A Toolkit for Integrity in Business is a three-part package of classroom learning materials developed by KPMG's Ethics and Compliance group. Created by—and from the perspective of—practitioners and educators in the accounting profession, the Ethical Compass Toolkit provides a comprehensive set of presentation materials and learning exercises designed to help students recognize and appropriately respond to ethical challenges. This presentation provides an overview of the various components and modules and takes participants through one of the modules providing an exercise in recognizing ethical dilemmas and providing a specific process for assessing and responding to those situations. NOTE: The Ethical Compass toolkit won the prestigious 2008 National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) award for Best Practices in Educational Programming.
