New Video Series Unwraps Ethical Behavior | Texas MBA Insider

Why do good people do bad things? That?s the topic of interest for McCombs? recently launched ?Ethics Unwrapped? project, a free video series which aims to?stimulate thought and discussion on business ethics.

Ethics Unwrapped is a project of the relatively new Business, Government & Society department at McCombs, formed as part of a renewed commitment to teaching business ethics at the university. The department?focuses on the regulatory, political, legal and ethical environment of business and aims to help students cultivate?the skills needed to?successfully manage the dynamic business environment of the future.

?Today?s global marketplace is more competitive, more transparent, more culturally and politically diverse, and more fluid than ever before,? said Robert Prentice, interim department chair and head of the Ethics Unwrapped?project. ?Future business leaders will need to be able to navigate?the legal, ethical and cultural demands of government and society.?

The videos include a documentary featuring disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, and more than a dozen animated shorts featuring ethics concepts, including those from one of the hottest areas in current ethics education ? behavioral ethics.Teaching notes are available for each video in the series, which is appropriate as continuing education for business leaders as well as students.

?Our goal is to provide a high quality and entertaining educational resource that anyone with access to the Internet may use,? said Prentice.

To see all of the videos, watch our ?Ethics Unwrapped? YouTube playlist.
