Ken Friedman,
Thank you for your contribution, I found it full of references and
interesting point and some statement which make me wonder..
Your statement "The note that Charles Wankel posted to the Business
Ethics
list today..." may be referring to what I sent yesterday and was posted
by
Charles today. Though you may also be referring to something entirely
different.
Please confirm and verify that you where not referring to my post in
which
I state ... "I find more useful: Ethics - the study of sustainable
consistent values and rules". I sent the post because I perceive a
general
degradation of morality, service, and values, which prevents effective
dialogue using 'morality' and the other terms as the foundations of
ethics.
From a business perspective, a sustainable business in the long run
becomes
much better than unsustainable ones... thus "the study of sustainable
consistent values and rules" in business can be enriched from ethics...
In response to the interrogative "what is our responsibility?"
Each individual takes on the responsibility for their actions and the
lack
of actions. Teaching, involves both the training in the use of tools
(providing the tool) and the education as to when to use the tools...
Introducing just the tools, would be like giving a student matches and
gasoline and then claiming that we have no responsibility for what
happens
next...
Cordially,
Esteban
