Which do you think would be more effective for shaping long-term ethical behavior in an organization: a written code of ethics c

-Dominant- [34]

Explanation:

A code of ethics can be defined as a set of rules and guidelines that exist in an organization to regulate the behavior and actions of all employees.

Therefore, there is no way to guarantee that only a formal and written code of ethics is necessary for managers and employees to actually practice ethical behavior.

What will define whether the code of ethics is really implemented in the company is its conduct and positioning in the internal and external environment. There is a way for a company to be unethical and have a complete and not exercised code of ethics.

Therefore, for the organizational culture to be based on the values set out in the code of ethics, it is necessary to have strong ethical leadership, as the leader is responsible for motivating and guiding the actions of employees based on their own example, then in the long term , it can be said that an ethical leadership would be more impactful for the formation of the shared values that form the organizational culture.
