I love learning about ethics. I think it’s very interesting how certain behaviors and universally thought as correct or incorrect- and then it breaks further into different questions.

Ethics is a huge part of business and life in general. This video explained that there are different values in different areas of the world. This video also talked about unethical behavior and how to behave in the real world. All great things to know!
This video helped me see how being ethical can change depending on the environment. In other classes we always cover ethical dilemmas regarding the workplace here in the U.S., we never go over what would be considered ethically correct in other cultures. As mentioned in the video, here in the U.S. one would not employ a child, however, in many other countries it’s necessary for children to work to get basic necessities , be able to go to school, or to help support their families.
I am glad that this video covered the issue of environmental pollution as an ethical issue. I care passionately about being a good steward of our environment and a lot of corporations do not care about the damage that they cause to our planet.
I found this video to be very informative and something that all business majors should watch and be educated on. This topic on ethical issues and can get pretty confusing and lost at times but this video does a very good job summarizing it and explaining it.

I found this video to be very insightful on what ethical problems can come with running a business. It helps me understand the ethical decision when that can be different in other cultures. The poorer country has more challenging ethical descion making than another country.
I think ethics can be traced back to that age old saying we all should have learned as a kid. Treat others how you wish to be treated. Of course not everything is always as black and white as we would like. The explanations of the different approaches to the ethical gray area were excellent.
This video provided great insight on how important ethics are in a healthy and prosperous business. Without proper ethics, people cannot make the best decisions, and if you are not being treated fairly, you have less motivation to perform your job. The level of authority you have, should not make okay to not perform ethical behavior. Different cultures have different views on this, so it is important to be open to diversity.
it is very interesting in seeing all the different types of ethics that go into the business world. Making good and ethical decisions can determine how the business succeeds or fails. In day-to-day business, ethical decisions are very common and are very important to move forward with a moral business. You have to be up to date on regulations in other countries to make sure to stay within moral practices within the business.

The ethical standards by which companies function allow for an honest established relationships between business to business and business to consumers. The topics covered in this video helped me have a greater understanding of how ethics places a crucial role in the business world.
I believe that sometimes in business, people can forget about ethics. I like how in the opening example, it is a serious topic, but also a relevant issue. It is important for us to understand that just because we see something as ethical in our mind, it does not mean other people see it the same way. I also liked how you explained some of the different ethical practices in other countries and that helped me see that everyone has a different opinion of what is and isn't ethical.
This video was most interesting as it’s always important to have good ethics, especially in Business. What stuck out to me most was the philosophical approaches to business ethics as it goes on the explain The Friedman Doctrine. I took away that a company’s sole reason is to maximize profits for its owners or shareholders as it is operating.
The “tone at the top” is a determining factor in the creation of a high integrity organization. Not only should companies establish clear standards and policies, but they should also be followed by both employees and high executives. This video does a great job at explaining what business ethics is, the roots of unethical behavior, and discusses philosophical approaches to business ethics. A company’s failure to monitor or manage its culture may cause questionable behavior which is why ethics should be taken seriously in the business field.
This video is very informative. I feel like everyone (include non-business students) should see it. We don't always realize how much more their is outside of our own home sometimes. We also don't realize where a product is actually made and how it was made. We don't know the working conditions or the pay. This video really opens your eyes to think more about what where something comes from and who made it.
This video was especially helpful for me, as my Business Ethics course also covered the "Roots of Unethical Behavior" as discussed in this video. It's interesting how leadership can be root of unethical behavior, because you would think rational leaders would understand it is to their companies benefit for their subordinates to conduct themselves in an ethical manner.
I think ethics in the world is a huge thing because it keeps certain standards in place. I think being in the business world and having good ethics does nothing but put a really good reputation on your company or your name. I really enjoyed this video because I really think everyone needs to learn about ethics because it will lead to the world being a better place.
When it comes to catching little opinions when it comes to making moral business judgments, this video is quite intriguing. The video, in my opinion, did a fantastic job of laying out the viewpoint and its constraints without stating whose viewpoint was the best.
Engaging with the content of this video brought me genuine enjoyment. I came across numerous insights that were previously unknown to me. The comprehensive explanations offered in the video notably deepened my understanding of various ethical issues in our world. I commend the effort invested in producing this informative piece.
This video was very helpful in the understanding of why businesses have certain standards, or why they should have better standards. Prior to this video I never payed much attention to how my job treated me, but after watching I see that I am working in a great environment. Ethics are so different everywhere you go, so i'm glad there are standards in the work environment!
I think ethics plays a major role that most people don't realize. There are multiple topics in our surrounding where both sides are both ethical and unethical to where we create an ethical dilemma. It even is interesting to hear how some people may view one situation as ethical while a similar one in unethical due to a small change in the situation.
This video gave great explanations and examples. It really gave me a better understanding on how many ethical issues there are in international business.
This video really goes into great detail about some of the causes of unethical behavior, as well as some of the major areas that unethical behavior occurs in. Likewise, the different philosophical approaches were all discussed in a way that was easy to understand. The video was both insightful and interesting to see. It also gives me the forethought to look out for certain "red flags" in companies where unethical behavior might be taking place.
I found this this video very informative. After watching “Ethics issues in the international business” I learn that ethics is no only important in business, but also important in non business situations. I learn that Nike was sued for allowing young children to work with horrible conditions and with low paid. Nike was judged for several moral ethics for allowing to hire young children
I think this video was very interesting to listen to, as it shows different examples and understandings of ethical issues within the workforce. In business, ethical issues happen everyday, but in international Business, especially shown in this video we can have examples of different types of ethical dilemas and how business ethics come into play in different countries and situations. It makes you wonder which ethical values and morals come in to play in different situations around the world.
I didn’t know what the fictional scenario was until i saw this video and read the power points to help me understand what the reasoning behind it. Thank you for the explaining it and breaking downs the right and wrongs for the actions of the organization
There are many choices that the leaders of businesses haver to make. Many of these choices require the leaders to make ethical decisions. In our world there are many different points of view and ethical beliefs that people hold. This video does a good job at giving an over view of these ethical beliefs as well as give some ethical issues that are faced in the real world.
This video provided realistic scenarios that I could test my critical thinking to decide what to do if there was an ethical issue. I found this video to be very insightful on what ethical problems can come with running a business. It helps me understand the ethical decision when that can be different in other cultures.
Ethics is often overlooked in business. Until recently managers were always profit-driven first and only softly focused on the idea of ethics. Now, there are whole companies built on the idea of ethical and socially acceptable behavior. I found this video very intriguing because of the fact that are different ethical views for every situation. It was interesting to learn about these different perspectives in detail because I was able to self reflect and determine what type of ethical practice I am, great video!
I believe that the discussion over ethics is a nuanced and complex subject. When adding in international business and learning about ethics from that standpoint it can get even more complex because all cultures don't share the same beliefs on what's ethical business-wise. Thanks for the break and awesome video.
Ethics issues has always been and still is a problem in the business world. This video showed me how these ethic issues start to develop and some philosophic approaches towards business ethics.
Principles have always been a problem, and you are correct that certain issues will never fully go away, but if businesses and individuals want to improve as a whole, we must begin to apply and follow good ethics. While determining what constitutes excellent ethics is not always straightforward, we can always rely on basic rights and wrongs. Having said that, it's a nice video.
Before even watching this video I thought that international business would have a lot of ethical issuses. After watching this video I can see how big these can impact everyone around them. These problems get tricky when it is ethical in one country but unethical in another. I think it is important to undertstand both sides because the whole situation is very tricky.
I like how the video touched on the different organizations corruption and unethical behavior. Most people don't realize what some companies view as reasonable and other parts of the world would never allow and have serious consequences and ramifications.
Before taking international marketing/ business courses, you don't really think about how different cultures have different ethical values. You also don't realize how you'll need to understand them in order to conduct business in other countries that have different ethical values than that of your own country. This video helped me get a better understanding of ethics overall and how it impacts the laws and business practices of other countries and cultures.
I believe that ethics and business go hand in hand with one another. Working in a business organization, we are exposed to different types of people and their own belief systems. In most businesses, employees work closely with one another and sometimes within group projects. Each country has their own ethics and how they believe it plays into the business world and this video showed me that.
This video was very informative. Especially the first example about the 12 year old orphan girl. In the US we rarely see these things because our country has ethical roots and laws that would prohibit things like this from happening. In other countries the story is very different, and children unfortunately do have to work from a very young age and be the breadwinner for their families.
This video caught my attention because unethical business practices from large companies are being exposed more and more everyday. It also affects consumers because they question their morals before conducting business with these places. I enjoy learning about ethical dilemmas because it makes me question what I would do in these situations. My understanding is corporations break these ethics to save and make more money faster, but every business owner needs to follow the ethical code by given out fair pay and better work conditions, as well as employees learning them so they will know when they are being taken advantage of.
I found this video very informative because my career goal is to be a corporate attorney. I learned a lot about ethics in business from this video and found myself playing this video several times over. I think it covers some important topics that are worthwhile for all college students to learn.
The beginning of this video really captured my attention because it started off a little different than the previous videos. It started off with a more serious introduction. This video really shares all the issues and just gives me a more detailed look at the struggles in many countries.
This video was very informative and and the video also help me understand how difficult some ethical decisions are for some companies depending on the situation that they are in and that not every situation is easy to make a decision, The video also told me how important it is to know different countries Ethical standards when you’re there
Business ethics are extremely important, regardless of where in the world you are conducting business. However, this video illustrates how there is not always an easy answer for every dilemma, depending on the culture and economic hardships faced by other less developed countries. Nevertheless, corporate leaders have a responsibility to conduct business in the most morally and ethically way possible.
This video helped a lot this chapter was starting to confuse me a little but the information and how it was shown really helped me better understand this topic and it now makes a lot more sense
Ethics in business can be overlooked at times. As discussed in the video, countries do not have the same ethical beliefs as we do in the US. This video did a great job explaining what business ethic is, and how it is used to run an organization.
I think that ethics is such an important topic to discuss while in school and helping in knowing what is right or wrong. This video was very helpful in my understanding of ethics in business.
This video explains just how different bussiness ethics are depending on what country you are doing bussiness in. The difference between each country can be very different. Different from the amount of time worked to the working conditions. Insane how different everything is in different countries.
I like this video I always knew business ethics were important. I never looked at how different other countries and cultures view ethics and how different they can be from other countries.
Ethics is a very interesting topic in regards to business, especially for international business. The ability to adapt your principles to another countries is very telling for plenty of us businesses, as if the labor is cheaper they will go there regardless of many factors. These being losing jobs at the home front and having sketchy payment practices for overseas employees. The act of going overseas isn’t bad in itself, the problem lies with the correctness of companies that can do so.
Ethics is such an important topic to talk about. As ethics are different from culture to culture around the global market what is accepted in one culture may not be accepted in another culture. I feel like child labor is always talked about and seen as inhumane but the working conditions are not often talked about and those can be more dangerous for a family than a child working. Globalized businesses find themselves in tight ethical dilemmas across different cultures and if something is okay in one country why is it not okay in another? It’s all about the ethics accepted in each culture.
Ethics is an extremely important topic in all aspects of business. It is important to learn about different cultures to know what would be ethical or not ethical in each different place. Thanks for the informative video.
I think it is important to understand ethics as business major, and more importantly understand that there are ethical issues that surround the business world especially when dealing in international business and understand how are ethics might cause a dilemma due to our cultural differences. I enjoyed how the video included all of this plus more and how it made it easy to understand.
This video made a really clear how big of a difference in culture it can be in different countries. It is always good to inform yourself when you want to open a business and apply for a job in a different country. This is a very informative video to think about this.
I am glad you enjoyed this video Malte, however, I have to disagree with you. I don't think that cultures matter when it comes to opening a business in different countries.
When it comes to business, ethics is a very important subject that needs to be addressed. I think that this video does a great job describing it and enlightening the topic.
Im a majoring in business and every business should have a code of ethics that they follow. Business should be represented morally positive because that will attract customers and will also attract people to want to work for your company. I believe in treating people right and doing right by people will bring an abundance of happiness and positive recognition.
I have learned about business ethics in other classes before, but this is the first time i've learned about through an international lens. The hypothetical situations make the viewer think and put themselves in managements shoes. Also i enjoy the way the video is structured, not to much information is given per slide and it is easy to pause on each screen to take notes. the pacing is constant but not too fast
Listening to the content in this video was a genuinely enjoyable experience for me. I encountered numerous insights that were previously unfamiliar to me. The thorough explanations provided in the video significantly enhanced my understanding of various ethical issues in our world. I appreciate the effort put into creating this informative piece.
I particularly enjoyed this topic of business ethics and it is a lot more expansive than I believed it would be. Sometimes I might have a narrow mindset and believe that most countries have the same values as the US. That’s not the case and it was interesting to compare different countries' ethics.
Ethics plays a huge part in not only business but also a persons life and how they act. There are a lot of things that us as consumers don't know about the company we buy from because it is behind closed doors to us. I believe that if a company has strong ethics and leaders to back that up then consumers will undoubtably follow. There is a major issue that what might be ethical in another country but it is not in our particular country. There is a ton of grey area when it comes to ethics in businesses internationally.
Ethics was one of the most interesting aspects of this class. It was interesting to see the dilemma that many business managers are faced with when it comes to ethics.
this video helped me to understand some of the ethical issues that some companies have to face. In my opinion, some of the methods and practices that some companies uses, are not the most beneficial for certain people however, those changes or methods may be the best for the business. i learned different methods of how to work with unethical behavior and some of the roots of unethical behavior.
This video was very informative on the topic of ethics. It is clear that every business must deal with some type of ethical dilemma at some point in time and should be trained and prepared to handle this situation appropriately. It is easy to see how certain businesses would quickly fail if they were to handle business unethically.
I am someone who fully believes in ethics, and think they are some of the most important things to go by. In business, it is important to stay true to who you are and do the right thing. I also think in business it is important to consider different backgrounds, cultures, and other factors to ensure that we practice good ethics with them as well.
Ethics is an issue in every country, but when you start engaging in international business, it can become even more complicated. Like the video stated, what is ethical in one country could be considered unethical in another country. This can force companies into ethical dilemmas. I liked learning about how to handle ethical dilemma in this video.
This lecture was very informative and easy to understand. Ethical dilemmas were discussed. I think this is a key component of an organization because we all come from different understandings and backgrounds. It is important to embody philosophical principles because there are many dilemmas that can come about in the workplace.
This video is really helpful for the decision-making and problem-solving process when facing a dilemma in a company, especially the ones that maintaining an international reach. This video is key to help to deal with unethical behavior and how to solve them by offering different approaches.
I think it's very important for people who conduct business outside their home nations or with people of different cultures to learn and understand the ethics of their environment. Ethics is very different from culture to culture so it is very important to be aware of the norms and what is and isn't acceptable. It's very important to be on the lookout for unethical behaviors, even if small it can grow into something that isn't safe for a good working environment.
I enjoyed this video. It was very informative. Ethics is always important, and a great thing to understand as it applies to every job no matter what one may work in.
Ethics is a very important thing. I believe that every business should have good ethics, meaning that they should do what is right for not only them but for others as well. As a business person, I should be honest with the people I am in business with and not lie or try to "get one over on them". Being honest and having good ethics will get you and your company a whole lot further in life than lying and trying to take shortcuts. It will also help you to keep a good reputation.
Ethics play a huge role in the corporate world on setting guidelines in the company on what not do and what you should do. Overall though basic ethic that humans should have learned plays a huge part in our lives on how we treat others inside of work and outside of work as well!
I think ethical issues are so important to discuss with students planning on going into the business field, especially given the unfortunate things that have happened in the past. Also, there is a trend of accountability on the rise. Consumers are time and time again, calling out unethical practices by businesses.
I believe as a business major, ethics is extremely important. Running a business is all about serving the community and people around you. When it becomes international, you have to understand cultural differences and ethics.
Great Illustrations and information in the video, its important to understand and be educated that political, legal, economic, and cultural norms vary from nation to nation. A normal practice may be ethical in one country but unethical in another.
Such an informative video. Does an amazing job, as always, explaining where it is easy to understand and retain. Ethics are so diverse since everyone is raised in such different cultures, so I can certainly see how there can be such major issues.

I am glad that this video covered the issue of environmental pollution as an ethical issue. I care passionately about being a good steward of our environment and a lot of corporations do not care about the damage that they cause to our planet.
I found this video to be very informative and something that all business majors should watch and be educated on. This topic on ethical issues and can get pretty confusing and lost at times but this video does a very good job summarizing it and explaining it.
This video is very important, it shows how ethics should be shown in business, and helps you understand the importance of ethics if you were to someday be an employee or a manager of a company.
I found this video to be very insightful on what ethical problems can come with running a business. It helps me understand the ethical decision when that can be different in other cultures. The poorer country has more challenging ethical descion making than another country.
I think ethics can be traced back to that age old saying we all should have learned as a kid. Treat others how you wish to be treated. Of course not everything is always as black and white as we would like. The explanations of the different approaches to the ethical gray area were excellent.
This video provided great insight on how important ethics are in a healthy and prosperous business. Without proper ethics, people cannot make the best decisions, and if you are not being treated fairly, you have less motivation to perform your job. The level of authority you have, should not make okay to not perform ethical behavior. Different cultures have different views on this, so it is important to be open to diversity.
it is very interesting in seeing all the different types of ethics that go into the business world. Making good and ethical decisions can determine how the business succeeds or fails. In day-to-day business, ethical decisions are very common and are very important to move forward with a moral business. You have to be up to date on regulations in other countries to make sure to stay within moral practices within the business.
Ethics is a fundamental element not just in international business but also in life. The ethical standards by which companies function allow for an honest established relationships between business to business and business to consumers. The topics covered in this video helped me have a greater understanding of how ethics places a crucial role in the business world.
This is a great video and I believe everyone should see it. It does great by showing how ethics and cultures can be perceived differently.
I believe that sometimes in business, people can forget about ethics. I like how in the opening example, it is a serious topic, but also a relevant issue. It is important for us to understand that just because we see something as ethical in our mind, it does not mean other people see it the same way. I also liked how you explained some of the different ethical practices in other countries and that helped me see that everyone has a different opinion of what is and isn't ethical.
This video was most interesting as it’s always important to have good ethics, especially in Business. What stuck out to me most was the philosophical approaches to business ethics as it goes on the explain The Friedman Doctrine. I took away that a company’s sole reason is to maximize profits for its owners or shareholders as it is operating.
The “tone at the top” is a determining factor in the creation of a high integrity organization. Not only should companies establish clear standards and policies, but they should also be followed by both employees and high executives. This video does a great job at explaining what business ethics is, the roots of unethical behavior, and discusses philosophical approaches to business ethics. A company’s failure to monitor or manage its culture may cause questionable behavior which is why ethics should be taken seriously in the business field.
This video is very informative. I feel like everyone (include non-business students) should see it. We don't always realize how much more their is outside of our own home sometimes. We also don't realize where a product is actually made and how it was made. We don't know the working conditions or the pay. This video really opens your eyes to think more about what where something comes from and who made it.
This video was especially helpful for me, as my Business Ethics course also covered the "Roots of Unethical Behavior" as discussed in this video. It's interesting how leadership can be root of unethical behavior, because you would think rational leaders would understand it is to their companies benefit for their subordinates to conduct themselves in an ethical manner.
I think ethics in the world is a huge thing because it keeps certain standards in place. I think being in the business world and having good ethics does nothing but put a really good reputation on your company or your name. I really enjoyed this video because I really think everyone needs to learn about ethics because it will lead to the world being a better place.
When it comes to catching little opinions when it comes to making moral business judgments, this video is quite intriguing. The video, in my opinion, did a fantastic job of laying out the viewpoint and its constraints without stating whose viewpoint was the best.
Engaging with the content of this video brought me genuine enjoyment. I came across numerous insights that were previously unknown to me. The comprehensive explanations offered in the video notably deepened my understanding of various ethical issues in our world. I commend the effort invested in producing this informative piece.
This video was very helpful in the understanding of why businesses have certain standards, or why they should have better standards. Prior to this video I never payed much attention to how my job treated me, but after watching I see that I am working in a great environment. Ethics are so different everywhere you go, so i'm glad there are standards in the work environment!
I think ethics plays a major role that most people don't realize. There are multiple topics in our surrounding where both sides are both ethical and unethical to where we create an ethical dilemma. It even is interesting to hear how some people may view one situation as ethical while a similar one in unethical due to a small change in the situation.
This video gave great explanations and examples. It really gave me a better understanding on how many ethical issues there are in international business.
This video really goes into great detail about some of the causes of unethical behavior, as well as some of the major areas that unethical behavior occurs in. Likewise, the different philosophical approaches were all discussed in a way that was easy to understand. The video was both insightful and interesting to see. It also gives me the forethought to look out for certain "red flags" in companies where unethical behavior might be taking place.
I found this this video very informative. After watching “Ethics issues in the international business” I learn that ethics is no only important in business, but also important in non business situations. I learn that Nike was sued for allowing young children to work with horrible conditions and with low paid. Nike was judged for several moral ethics for allowing to hire young children
I think this video was very interesting to listen to, as it shows different examples and understandings of ethical issues within the workforce. In business, ethical issues happen everyday, but in international Business, especially shown in this video we can have examples of different types of ethical dilemas and how business ethics come into play in different countries and situations. It makes you wonder which ethical values and morals come in to play in different situations around the world.
Ethics has always been a topic that has interested me, this video was really good because it brought the topic into the business world
I didn’t know what the fictional scenario was until i saw this video and read the power points to help me understand what the reasoning behind it. Thank you for the explaining it and breaking downs the right and wrongs for the actions of the organization
There are many choices that the leaders of businesses haver to make. Many of these choices require the leaders to make ethical decisions. In our world there are many different points of view and ethical beliefs that people hold. This video does a good job at giving an over view of these ethical beliefs as well as give some ethical issues that are faced in the real world.
This video provided realistic scenarios that I could test my critical thinking to decide what to do if there was an ethical issue. I found this video to be very insightful on what ethical problems can come with running a business. It helps me understand the ethical decision when that can be different in other cultures.
Ethics is often overlooked in business. Until recently managers were always profit-driven first and only softly focused on the idea of ethics. Now, there are whole companies built on the idea of ethical and socially acceptable behavior. I found this video very intriguing because of the fact that are different ethical views for every situation. It was interesting to learn about these different perspectives in detail because I was able to self reflect and determine what type of ethical practice I am, great video!
I believe that the discussion over ethics is a nuanced and complex subject. When adding in international business and learning about ethics from that standpoint it can get even more complex because all cultures don't share the same beliefs on what's ethical business-wise. Thanks for the break and awesome video.
Ethics issues has always been and still is a problem in the business world. This video showed me how these ethic issues start to develop and some philosophic approaches towards business ethics.
Principles have always been a problem, and you are correct that certain issues will never fully go away, but if businesses and individuals want to improve as a whole, we must begin to apply and follow good ethics. While determining what constitutes excellent ethics is not always straightforward, we can always rely on basic rights and wrongs. Having said that, it's a nice video.
Before even watching this video I thought that international business would have a lot of ethical issuses. After watching this video I can see how big these can impact everyone around them. These problems get tricky when it is ethical in one country but unethical in another. I think it is important to undertstand both sides because the whole situation is very tricky.
I like how the video touched on the different organizations corruption and unethical behavior. Most people don't realize what some companies view as reasonable and other parts of the world would never allow and have serious consequences and ramifications.
Before taking international marketing/ business courses, you don't really think about how different cultures have different ethical values. You also don't realize how you'll need to understand them in order to conduct business in other countries that have different ethical values than that of your own country. This video helped me get a better understanding of ethics overall and how it impacts the laws and business practices of other countries and cultures.
I believe that ethics and business go hand in hand with one another. Working in a business organization, we are exposed to different types of people and their own belief systems. In most businesses, employees work closely with one another and sometimes within group projects. Each country has their own ethics and how they believe it plays into the business world and this video showed me that.
This video was very informative. Especially the first example about the 12 year old orphan girl. In the US we rarely see these things because our country has ethical roots and laws that would prohibit things like this from happening. In other countries the story is very different, and children unfortunately do have to work from a very young age and be the breadwinner for their families.
This video caught my attention because unethical business practices from large companies are being exposed more and more everyday. It also affects consumers because they question their morals before conducting business with these places. I enjoy learning about ethical dilemmas because it makes me question what I would do in these situations. My understanding is corporations break these ethics to save and make more money faster, but every business owner needs to follow the ethical code by given out fair pay and better work conditions, as well as employees learning them so they will know when they are being taken advantage of.
I found this video very informative because my career goal is to be a corporate attorney. I learned a lot about ethics in business from this video and found myself playing this video several times over. I think it covers some important topics that are worthwhile for all college students to learn.
The beginning of this video really captured my attention because it started off a little different than the previous videos. It started off with a more serious introduction. This video really shares all the issues and just gives me a more detailed look at the struggles in many countries.
This video was very informative and and the video also help me understand how difficult some ethical decisions are for some companies depending on the situation that they are in and that not every situation is easy to make a decision, The video also told me how important it is to know different countries Ethical standards when you’re there
Business ethics are extremely important, regardless of where in the world you are conducting business. However, this video illustrates how there is not always an easy answer for every dilemma, depending on the culture and economic hardships faced by other less developed countries. Nevertheless, corporate leaders have a responsibility to conduct business in the most morally and ethically way possible.
This video helped a lot this chapter was starting to confuse me a little but the information and how it was shown really helped me better understand this topic and it now makes a lot more sense
Ethics in business can be overlooked at times. As discussed in the video, countries do not have the same ethical beliefs as we do in the US. This video did a great job explaining what business ethic is, and how it is used to run an organization.
I think that ethics is such an important topic to discuss while in school and helping in knowing what is right or wrong. This video was very helpful in my understanding of ethics in business.
This video explains just how different bussiness ethics are depending on what country you are doing bussiness in. The difference between each country can be very different. Different from the amount of time worked to the working conditions. Insane how different everything is in different countries.
I like this video I always knew business ethics were important. I never looked at how different other countries and cultures view ethics and how different they can be from other countries.
Ethics is a very interesting topic in regards to business, especially for international business. The ability to adapt your principles to another countries is very telling for plenty of us businesses, as if the labor is cheaper they will go there regardless of many factors. These being losing jobs at the home front and having sketchy payment practices for overseas employees. The act of going overseas isn’t bad in itself, the problem lies with the correctness of companies that can do so.
Ethics is such an important topic to talk about. As ethics are different from culture to culture around the global market what is accepted in one culture may not be accepted in another culture. I feel like child labor is always talked about and seen as inhumane but the working conditions are not often talked about and those can be more dangerous for a family than a child working. Globalized businesses find themselves in tight ethical dilemmas across different cultures and if something is okay in one country why is it not okay in another? It’s all about the ethics accepted in each culture.
Ethics is an extremely important topic in all aspects of business. It is important to learn about different cultures to know what would be ethical or not ethical in each different place. Thanks for the informative video.
I think it is important to understand ethics as business major, and more importantly understand that there are ethical issues that surround the business world especially when dealing in international business and understand how are ethics might cause a dilemma due to our cultural differences. I enjoyed how the video included all of this plus more and how it made it easy to understand.
This video made a really clear how big of a difference in culture it can be in different countries. It is always good to inform yourself when you want to open a business and apply for a job in a different country. This is a very informative video to think about this.
I am glad you enjoyed this video Malte, however, I have to disagree with you. I don't think that cultures matter when it comes to opening a business in different countries.
When it comes to business, ethics is a very important subject that needs to be addressed. I think that this video does a great job describing it and enlightening the topic.
Im a majoring in business and every business should have a code of ethics that they follow. Business should be represented morally positive because that will attract customers and will also attract people to want to work for your company. I believe in treating people right and doing right by people will bring an abundance of happiness and positive recognition.
I have learned about business ethics in other classes before, but this is the first time i've learned about through an international lens. The hypothetical situations make the viewer think and put themselves in managements shoes. Also i enjoy the way the video is structured, not to much information is given per slide and it is easy to pause on each screen to take notes. the pacing is constant but not too fast
Listening to the content in this video was a genuinely enjoyable experience for me. I encountered numerous insights that were previously unfamiliar to me. The thorough explanations provided in the video significantly enhanced my understanding of various ethical issues in our world. I appreciate the effort put into creating this informative piece.
This was a great lecture because it depicted and broke down ethics and also went into how it can be seen in different ways in a variety of countries.
I particularly enjoyed this topic of business ethics and it is a lot more expansive than I believed it would be. Sometimes I might have a narrow mindset and believe that most countries have the same values as the US. That’s not the case and it was interesting to compare different countries' ethics.
Ethics plays a huge part in not only business but also a persons life and how they act. There are a lot of things that us as consumers don't know about the company we buy from because it is behind closed doors to us. I believe that if a company has strong ethics and leaders to back that up then consumers will undoubtably follow. There is a major issue that what might be ethical in another country but it is not in our particular country. There is a ton of grey area when it comes to ethics in businesses internationally.
Ethics was one of the most interesting aspects of this class. It was interesting to see the dilemma that many business managers are faced with when it comes to ethics.
this video helped me to understand some of the ethical issues that some companies have to face. In my opinion, some of the methods and practices that some companies uses, are not the most beneficial for certain people however, those changes or methods may be the best for the business. i learned different methods of how to work with unethical behavior and some of the roots of unethical behavior.
This video was very informative on the topic of ethics. It is clear that every business must deal with some type of ethical dilemma at some point in time and should be trained and prepared to handle this situation appropriately. It is easy to see how certain businesses would quickly fail if they were to handle business unethically.
I am someone who fully believes in ethics, and think they are some of the most important things to go by. In business, it is important to stay true to who you are and do the right thing. I also think in business it is important to consider different backgrounds, cultures, and other factors to ensure that we practice good ethics with them as well.
Ethics is an issue in every country, but when you start engaging in international business, it can become even more complicated. Like the video stated, what is ethical in one country could be considered unethical in another country. This can force companies into ethical dilemmas. I liked learning about how to handle ethical dilemma in this video.
This lecture was very informative and easy to understand. Ethical dilemmas were discussed. I think this is a key component of an organization because we all come from different understandings and backgrounds. It is important to embody philosophical principles because there are many dilemmas that can come about in the workplace.
This video is really helpful for the decision-making and problem-solving process when facing a dilemma in a company, especially the ones that maintaining an international reach. This video is key to help to deal with unethical behavior and how to solve them by offering different approaches.
I think it's very important for people who conduct business outside their home nations or with people of different cultures to learn and understand the ethics of their environment. Ethics is very different from culture to culture so it is very important to be aware of the norms and what is and isn't acceptable. It's very important to be on the lookout for unethical behaviors, even if small it can grow into something that isn't safe for a good working environment.
I enjoyed this video. It was very informative. Ethics is always important, and a great thing to understand as it applies to every job no matter what one may work in.
Ethics is a very important thing. I believe that every business should have good ethics, meaning that they should do what is right for not only them but for others as well. As a business person, I should be honest with the people I am in business with and not lie or try to "get one over on them". Being honest and having good ethics will get you and your company a whole lot further in life than lying and trying to take shortcuts. It will also help you to keep a good reputation.
Ethics play a huge role in the corporate world on setting guidelines in the company on what not do and what you should do. Overall though basic ethic that humans should have learned plays a huge part in our lives on how we treat others inside of work and outside of work as well!
I think ethical issues are so important to discuss with students planning on going into the business field, especially given the unfortunate things that have happened in the past. Also, there is a trend of accountability on the rise. Consumers are time and time again, calling out unethical practices by businesses.
This is a great video! Ethics is difficult because it often times falls into a "grey area" about what the right thing to do is.
I believe as a business major, ethics is extremely important. Running a business is all about serving the community and people around you. When it becomes international, you have to understand cultural differences and ethics.
Great Illustrations and information in the video, its important to understand and be educated that political, legal, economic, and cultural norms vary from nation to nation. A normal practice may be ethical in one country but unethical in another.
Such an informative video. Does an amazing job, as always, explaining where it is easy to understand and retain. Ethics are so diverse since everyone is raised in such different cultures, so I can certainly see how there can be such major issues.
Ethics is always one of the most important topics when it comes to business. There are many different beliefs on what is seemed to be ethical or not. Understanding different cultures and what is normal to them versus normal to us, helps us know the differences in practices and beliefs when involving ourselves with others.
