Selected readings provide the basis for this part. The second part will extend the scope of ethical consideration to the business context and to the level of an organization. This part uses insights from human behavior. Selected research papers and reports provide the basis for this part. The third part will focus on particular cases and role plays with professional actors. Overall, an open discussion and a self-discovery of the ethical aspects by the participants will be key for the interactive character of the seminar. More details on the structure and interactive elements (e.g. simulations, role plays) will follow closer to the seminar on moodle. |
