Business ethics: From Enron to Lehman Brothers
with Ken Lewchuk
Date: Tuesday, June 10
Time: 12:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.
CPD: Up to 4 Ethics hours
The collapse of Enron Corporation and Lehman Brothers are iconic case studies in business ethics. However, discussions of these case studies often oversimplify the complex ethical, financial, and accounting issues involved, focusing primarily on legal and regulatory aspects rather than the deeper influences of moral psychology and culture. This course offers a more advanced analysis of these cases, exploring how moral psychological and cultural factors contribute to these failures and how their lessons apply to our current business environment. Ideal for professionals seeking a deeper understanding of ethical behaviour within large corporations or firms, this course will provide valuable insights for anyone interested in corporate ethics and governance, or the case studies presented.
