Nicole Rose’s Post

What makes ethics more than compliance? Why should corporate norm-setting involve dialogues when “Compliance” is often more about edicts? On this episode of The Eight Mindsets, Jason Meyer, Nicole Rose, and Roderick Noordhoek of Rabobank dig deep into the challenges and rewards of ethical leadership. We’re proud to bring you this thoughtful discussion on how ethics shapes decision-making, culture, and sustainable business practices. This is a must-listen for anyone committed to pushing beyond check-the-box compliance to create truly values-driven organizations. Listen, reflect, and join the dialogue: https://lnkd.in/gGVbGnua

BUSINESS & SOCIETY-PART 1 Ethics and Stakeholder Management Seventh Edition Archie B. Carroll University of Georgia Ann K. Buchholtz University of Georgia Business & Society: Ethics and Stakeholder Management, Seventh Edition, employs a stakeholder management framework that emphasizes business’s social and ethical responsibilities to external and internal stakeholder groups. A managerial perspective is embedded within the book’s dual themes of business ethics and stakeholder management. The ethics dimension is central because it has become increasingly clear that ethical or moral considerations are woven into the fabric of the public issues that organizations face. Economic and legal issues are inevitably present, too. However, these aspects are treated more directly in other business administration courses. The stakeholder management perspective is essential because it requires managers to (1) identify the various groups or individuals who have stakes in the firm or its actions, decisions, and practices, and (2) incorporate those stakeholders’ concerns into the firm’s strategic plans and daily operations. Stakeholder management is an approach that increases the likelihood that decision makers will integrate ethical wisdom with management wisdom in all that they do.

Ethics isn't just a fluffy concept open to multiple interpretations; it's a crucial framework with real impact. Our favorite Ethics Team, ARCTIC FC, provides the guidelines to ensure business growth that protects all stakeholders. Research has shown that consistently applying ethical principles leads to a stronger brand reputation, attracting and retaining the right talent, gaining more customers, and enhancing customer loyalty. Ultimately, this results in sustained and improved profitability. You might think, "This all sounds great, but it takes too much time, doesn't directly impact the bottom line, and seems like a distraction, especially for smaller companies." However, the truth is that a board's ethical duties are not burdensome. When done correctly, they provide a high-quality blank canvas. What you add to that canvas depends on your organisation's stage of maturity. Think of it in bite-sized pieces – more like tapas than Garfield devouring a saucepan of spaghetti 😊 As we continue our focus on Boardroom Ethics this August, remember: Ethics is an essential foundation, not just for major corporations but for enterprises of all sizes and forms. Stay tuned for tomorrow's discussion on Board Maturity. Until next time, I will leave you with our latest corny joke…. Why did the ethics committee bring a broom to the meeting? To sweep away all the shady business!

Ethics are taking center stage in most professional marketing discussions. To many of us in business, when ethics come up, thoughts run straight to accounting fraud, supplier mismanagement, and probably inappropriate behavior toward staff. This is not wrong. In today’s insight, we will get a fresh perspective that will anchor our ethics appreciation this year. In 2013, while at a class reunion at Duke University, the now Apple CEO Tim Cook stated, “when I think of ethics, I think of leaving things better than you found them" and to me that goes for everything from environmental issues, to how you work with suppliers, the environmental effects of your products, to the things you choose to support as a business, to the way you treat your employees. Your whole persona as a business fits under the umbrella of ethics. This for me was the most powerful yet simple understanding of ethics that I’ve come across. Imagine if as marketers, we take center stage - with a goal to simply leave things better than we found them, to value the organizational reputations we are entrusted with, to improve the product and service offerings we manage, to improve the business relations with its key stakeholders and customers, think of all aspects that we find intact when we join organizations. Then unethical behavior becomes simple as well, leaving things worse than you found them in all aspects. What’s your thought on this angle toward ethics? How do you personally keep ethics at the center stage of what you do? #KitendaInsights2024
