Companies can take many steps to boost ethics and morale, and studies show a clear link between a principled workplace and productive workers. This book shares innovative ideas used around the country, from compensation and communication to hiring and firing. Also included: an extensive section on writing an effective ethics code for your business.  

This book is yet another expression of the Josephson Institute's mission to promote ethical decision making as the crucial quality of effective organizations and people. The Institute is active in all aspects of ethics education, from adults - through its Ethics and Effectiveness in the Workplace seminars and consulting services - to youth, where it all begins. Its CHARACTER COUNTS! initiative is by far the nation's most widely implemented approach to character education, reaching millions of youth through thousands of schools, communities and human-service agencies. The business community supports CHARACTER COUNTS! activities on the national and local levels.
