Corporate Ethics and Responsibility

The recent epidemic of corporate scandals has received intense media coverage and eroded employee and stakeholder trust. Increased connectivity also makes it possible for people to more easily distribute and access previously private or sensitive information. As a result, corporate ethics and responsibility is now at the forefront of how many leading companies conduct business.

LRN believes that companies engage the workforce in corporate values through promoting their business code of ethics. Organizations that institutionalize ethical leadership at every level offer training programs that make corporate ethics and responsibility part of every day company practice. Corporate cultures that encourage ethical behavior will naturally attract and retain the best talent. And employees that complete formal business ethics training will self-govern themselves, their co-workers and other key stakeholders to live by the same code of conduct.

Proven Approaches to Build a Culture of Corporate Ethics and Responsibility

A successful corporate ethics training program should take the following actions to build an organization that thrives under a code of corporate ethics and responsibility:

• Engage corporate leadership to drive efforts to educate the entire workforce on corporate ethics and responsibility and ethical decision making.
• Educate on corporate values, not just law and rules, to inspire principled behavior.
• Make corporate ethics and responsibility education entertaining, interesting and engaging.
• Make corporate ethics and responsibility professionally relevant.
• Reinforce corporate ethics and responsibility through education and apply learning on the job.
