Päivi Vaahterikko-Mejía selvittää väitöstutkimuksessaan, millainen kuva latinalais-amerikkalaisilla neuvottelijoilla on kolumbialaisista ja suomalaisista neuvottelijoista, ja minkälaisia kulttuurieroja suomalaisten ja latinalais-amerikkalaisten välisessä kommunikaatiossa esiintyy. --Neuvottelijoiden kansallinen kulttuuri vaikuttaa heidän käytökseensä, neuvotteluihin, heidän havaintoihinsa ja odotuksiinsa kauppasuhteissa. Nämä tekijät taas vaikuttavat kauppasuhteen syntymiseen, kehittymiseen ja itse kauppaan, Vaahterikko-Mejía toteaa.Vaahterikko-Mejían mukaan Suomi-Kolumbia kaupassa on neuvottelijoiden välisiä kulttuurieroista johtuvia viestinnällisiä epäselvyyksiä.

Student Perceptions of the Ethics of Professors

2005

Ethical violations are becoming common in the business world. Teaching proper ethical behavior can begin in college. In this study, we surveyed 350 students to determine what affects students’ perceptions of the ethics of professors and to determine whether or not taking a course in ethics changes this perception. The most important factor in determining whether or not a professor is ethical is “fairness in grading.” Surprisingly, there was no statistically significant difference between students who took a course in ethics and those who did not in their perception of what makes a professor ethical or unethical. There were some differences, however, between males and females in these percep…

We study the ethics of competition in a market economy. The competition between firms and individuals within a firm in a market economy is compared with the competition between species and individuals within one species in the nature, and that between different teams, individuals within a team as well as individual athletes in sport. Our conclusion is that if the competition is fair, it meets the requirements of high ethics, and it is one of the fundamental sources of economic development.

Darwin and Ethics : Using Natural Selection to Understand Ethical Business and Organizational Behavior

2000

The origins of ethics and morality have been considered for many, many years. From ancient Greek metaphysicians to the great theologians of the Middle Ages to modern philosophers, different systematic frameworks have been developed to understand how and why ethics are formed.

Steiner and Steiner (1991) discuss six different primary sources for understanding the development of ethics: religious, philosophical, cultural, legal, codes of conduct, and genetics (see Table). Of these six systems, the genetic framework is clearly the least developed, least exp…

Specifically, the study examined the studentïs perception of ethical relative to sixteen cases, each of which describes an ethical dilemma. The results showed that, overall, the students from the four universities differ significantly in their percepti…
