Overview
While personal ethics focuses on the individual, business ethics looks to the people that we surround ourselves with, both from a staff and customer perspective. In other words, business ethics involves moral principles that guide the way a business conducts itself internally and externally.
Some of the components of business ethics include corporate culture, leadership, diversity, corporate citizenship and how to address ethical dilemmas. As the world has indeed become a global village, the survival of every business requires organisational procedures and systems that are guided by good ethical conduct.
