interesting case studies.
According to my understanding, the established set of moral principles and code of conduct in a
commercial organization is known as business ethics. The intricacies of what this entails can change
depending on the organization. I would like to breakdown my reflections in chunks:
There are occasions when an organization may brag about having an ethical and inclusive
culture, but when it comes to implementation, they may not really adopt it entirely. What I
