Ethics in any sort of field is a necessity, not an oxymoron. “Business ethics” is not the equivalent of “jumbo shrimp.”

I think that some people still picture skeevy used car salesmen handing stacks of money under the table when they imagine the business world. It’s not the case.

In order to be successful in business, there have to be transactions, right? Business is based on relationships, and if you screw your partners over and don’t treat your clients well, then you won’t be in business for long.

Beyond the monetary motivations to conduct business ethically, I think it’s necessary to act ethically in order to have a career you can be proud of.

After all, why be the used car salesman when you can be woman (or man) of the year?
