A business that does not live by a set of moral or ethical principles is more likely to take a reputational hit with devastating consequences.
In recent years, businesses have been forced by consumers, the public and civil society to examine if the way in which they deliver their products and services is ethical.
We believe that business must be proactive in their approach to ethics and embrace the headwinds of change.
Businesses that disregard ethics will no longer be able to sustain long term returns to shareholders, employees, or their obligations to society.
It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that you’ll do things differently.
