The IBE Business Ethics Framework
How to build an ethical culture using the IBE Business Ethics Framework.
Building an Ethical Culture
Building an ethical culture starts with a clear set of values and an understanding of the purpose of the organisation. For an ethics policy and programme to be effective, every aspect of corporate culture needs to be harnessed to guide and support the organisation and its employees to live up to the ethical values it espouses.
The IBE Business Ethics Framework outlines the key elements of an ethics programme which can form the foundations to help you build your organisation's ethical culture.
