Abstract:

Countering the ethical crisis in business by creating organizations with cultures of character is the
challenge faced by business leaders desiring to regain the respect and confidence of the public. This
article describes organizations with cultures of character and outlines steps leaders can take to craft
them. How business educators can help organizational leaders take these steps by providing professional
development workshops is then explored. Finally, two example workshops the author has developed and
taught are presented to stimulate discussion of lessons learned plus suggestions to other business
educators who wish to create and offer similar programs.
