Objective: To better understand ethics and whistle-blowing.
AACSB: The primary AACSB learning standard skills developed through this exercise are reflective thinking and self-management, analytic skills, and communication abilities.
Preparation: You should have completed Self-Assessment Exercise 3-4, How Ethical Is Your Behavior?
Experience: You will share your answers to the questions below.
Briefly answer the following questions related to Self-Assessment Exercise 3-4:
1. For "College" items 1 through 3, who is harmed and who benefits from these unethical behaviors?
2. For "Job" items 4 through 24, select the three (circle their numbers) that you consider the most severe unethical behavior. Who is harmed and who benefits by these unethical behaviors?
3. If you observed unethical behavior but didn't report it, why didn't you blow the whistle? If you did, why did you report the unethical behavior? What was the result?
4. As a manager, it is your responsibility to uphold ethical behavior. If you know employees are using unethical behavior, will you take action to enforce compliance with ethical standards?
5. What can you do to prevent unethical behavior?
6. As part of the class discussion, share the "Other Unethical Behavior" you have observed.
If you didn't add any, try to do so until the time is up.
Option A: Break into groups of five or six, and share your answers to the questions. The instructor will tell the group if they should select a spokesperson to report to the entire class.
Option B: The instructor leads a discussion in which students share their answers to the questions. (The instructor may begin by going over the statements and have students who have observed the behavior raise their hands.) Then the instructor will have them raise their hands if they reported the behavior.
Conclusion: The instructor may lead a class discussion and/or make concluding remarks.
Application (2-4 minutes): What did I learn from this exercise? How will I use this knowledge in the future?
