The COVID-19 pandemic is shining a spotlight on ethics and values as businesses confront extraordinary circumstances in their everyday operations, financial management, and ways of working. An ethical toolkit for operating through a recession amid a pandemic has never been more solely needed.
Just in time, Explorium HK is pleased to announce the Asian launches of two business ethics toolkits: one from the Institute of Business Ethics (IBE) in the UK and the other from a Global Futures Council of the World Economic Forum (WEF). Receive early access to the toolkits and explore the issue further as it impacts companies and markets in Asia.
Sign up now to join Explorium HK, IBE, WEF, and BSR on December 15 for a primer on business ethics in the new normal.
