Follow on Google News | ISNworks member Terry Clancy presents Boring Ethics Training Doesn’t Work!There is a special meeting for all employees. Yes, it’s that time again… mandatory corporate ethics training.
By: Tracy Dalton What do you mean, you don’t like ethics training? What’s the reason for that attitude? Is it because the ethics trainings you’ve been to are boring and led by someone reading from your corporate Code of Ethics Handbook? The same handbook you were supposed to have read on your own and, in fact, signed a document stating as much? Unfortunately, all too often ethics training is conducted in this manner. There is such a negative tone to these meetings. You’re told what not to do and the consequences for deviating from the Code of Ethics. When organizations are trying to increase ethical behavior, how effective are such trainings? Most people learn more and remember longer when they are engaged, participate and have fun during the process of learning. Ethics/ One question I like to ask the groups I address is “Got Ethics?” Ethics is a word we all use and think we know, but do we all have the same understanding? Making ethics real to people makes it stick. They no longer see ethics as just a bunch of rules to follow and instead see it as the right thing to do. They understand and internalize that ethical behavior will help everyone involved. Internalization of ethical behavior should be the goal of all ethics trainings.
