Are business ethics different from personal ethics?
Are business ethics different from personal ethics?
I am seeing quite a few posts and articles as of late that are calling out how important it is to have a great deal of business ethics. It appears to suggest that there is a difference between business and your personal ethics. How can there be two different kinds? How can I have any business ethics if I do not have personal one or vice versa?
Bottom line is that they are one and the same. Ethical behavior is ethical behavior. Think of being ethical in one setting but not the other. We cannot possibly start making a difference between these two spaces without being hypocritical.
