Tony and Margaret: December 2014

http://tonyandmargaret.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 31, 2014. It's been real, it's been fun, but it hasn't been real fun. Actually, like everything in life, it's had its ups and downs. The big up for me is that I finally finished typing up my dissertation and sent it off to my committee. We will see how they evaluate it and me next week. I also wanted to document my recently sprained ankle that was a blessing in disguise. This was right after it happened. One of these is not like the other. About a week later. Tuesday, December 23, 2014.

Ethics, Business, and Society: Does it pay to be ethical?

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/05/does-it-pay-to-be-ethical.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Monday, June 2, 2008. Does it pay to be ethical? From the Wall Street Journal:. The link can be found at the end of this entry. Article attempts to answer these questions:. Will buyers actually reward good corporate behavior by paying more for products - and will they punish irresponsible behavior by paying less? If so, how much? And just how far does a company really need to go to win people over? Strengths of the Article. Actually conducted an experiment! Author inaccurat...

Ethics, Business, and Society: Affirmative Action

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/06/affirmative-action.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Tuesday, June 3, 2008. Today in class we discussed affirmative action, and I'm still totally for it. Even though the Supreme Court says race quotas violate the 14th amendment because it discriminates against race, I still think race quotas have a net benefit. Fastest growing membership area.

Tony and Margaret: I left my heart in San Diego.

http://tonyandmargaret.blogspot.com/2015/02/i-left-my-heart-in-san-diego.html

Sunday, February 22, 2015. I left my heart in San Diego. We could not have asked for a better vacation last week. Our daughter slept on both flights, we were safe the whole time (those California drivers have a bad rap for a reason! Tony got to network around Anaheim, we ate like kings, we stayed with our dearest of dear friends in San Diego, and we came back recharged and ready for our routines again. It was the perfect trip, and definitely worth waiting two years for. I'd move out there in a hot minute.

Ethics, Business, and Society: Power

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/06/power.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Wednesday, June 11, 2008. We studied the Milgram and Zimbardo experiments today in class. The guards in the Stanford experiment were normal students became very perverse, abusive individuals. We took a quiz on how Machiavellian we were. And I scored pretty high. Well that's because here is an example of a Machiavellian mindset "Anyone who completely trusts anyone else is asking for trouble". EVER SIGNED A CONTRACT WITH A SALESMAN?

Ethics, Business, and Society: Aid response to Szechuan earthquake

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/05/aid-response-to-szechuan-earthquake_20.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Wednesday, June 4, 2008. Aid response to Szechuan earthquake. I'd like to know how the Chinese government and businesses have responded to the relief effort for the earthquake in China. Let's stick a barometer in China and take a look. Not bad, especially when China gets scalding criticism for selfishness. Why the difference now? Are they tired of the bad rap and want to clean it up a little before the summer games start? Would China help anyone not of their own?

Tony and Margaret: Home, Sweet Home

http://tonyandmargaret.blogspot.com/2015/06/home-sweet-home.html

Saturday, June 27, 2015. Home, Sweet Home. We're still moving in, and the days are long and we aren't getting any sleep, but we are thrilled to finally be together. Please pardon our dust; we are still settling in. If it took us a week to figure out how to water our lawn, I imagine this place won't be picture ready for at least a couple of years. Holy awesome, your new kitchen is huge! Are you still local? Im so excited for you and your family! June 27, 2015 at 9:06 PM. Your place looks sooo nice!

Ethics, Business, and Society: workplace discrimination

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/05/business-ethics-and-environment.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Thursday, May 29, 2008. One of the most important aspects to keep in mind during the assessment of crises, and the avoidance or minimization of their impact, is the immediate and ongoing impact on the organization's reputation. Decisionmakers can make choices that benefit all stakeholders (at a high cost, though) and often enhance the organizations reputational capital or shorten the period of diminishment. This is why we need to protect our whistleblowers.

Ethics, Business, and Society

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008/06/so-were-watching-video-in-class-about.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Tuesday, June 10, 2008. So we're watching a video in class about the interview i mentioned a few posts ago - Bill Gates Sr. and the heir of the Oscar Meyer fortune - about fairness of the estate tax. We just don't look enough at the role society plays in helping people create wealth", so the government is entitled to tax those who made their success with the government's help. I think this interview is so neat. Great food for thought. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Ethics, Business, and Society: April 2008

http://julieskis.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html

Ethics, Business, and Society. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Can Ethics Be Taught? Of course ethics can be taught! Haven't you ever asked someone, "What do you think I should do? Moreover, people love TEACHING others ethics (whether they know they are or not). People love telling you what they think you should do in sticky situations. My ability to deal with moral issues has been shaped at home, of course, but heavily by people connected to me at church, and also my university training. I was so shocked!
