Grand Ethical Challenges and Management Education: A Moral Intensity Approach
Moral intensity, political corruption, grand challenges
This session calls participants to arms in the fight to solve society’s grand ethical challenges, specifically political corruption. Using the dimensions of moral intensity as an organizing framework, we seek to demonstrate how management educators can highlight the deleterious effects of political corruption, which are not obvious at the point of transaction, to raise moral awareness and increase the likelihood of moral behavior beyond graduation. Participants will discuss how this approach can be adapted to address a variety of ethical issues. Participants will also receive a list of online tools, articles, and other links to assist in implementing this approach.
