Business Ethics – Personal Ethics
qPeople in the name of business are of the view that business ethics do not affect a person’s personal character. qHowever, this is not true. You cannot separate business ethics from personal ethics qBusiness ethics will spill over into personal lives and personal values will spill over into the lifeblood of the business qIt is important to be ethical in ones business dealings. People refuse to do business with people who are unethical
qValues are essential in a healthy society
qThe bottom line is that there is no difference between business ethics and personal ethics
