This video is a good example of one of our monthly webinars, featuring a though-provoking presentation by Philip Stratton-Lake from the University of Reading.
“It’s wrong to bribe an official, and that’s a fact!” But is it? Suppose the bribe on offer is of very little value and offering it is the only way to get something important done. Are we still so sure there is a fact of the matter here?

A strong ethical workplace culture can lead to a 20-30% improvement in individual and team performance. Companies that take an ethical approach are also more highly regarded, helping them attract and retain the best talent and win loyal customers, which in turn drives profitability. So an ethical approach can be a profitable one too.
