Ethics. Question is do we really need it? I believe of course YES. Honesty is the best policy that's what has been told to us from our childhood, most of us take our parents as role models from the day we open our eyes in this world. I would say, the set of values we have and we get from our tradition, religion and our country is wonderful. Without ethics everything will be for a short span, till the time you don't correct your basic how can you think for a long term success. Every business should follow ethics or else it will be a complete failure in long run.

As everyone knows ethics are the moral principles that govern a person's actions.

In business, this is the most necessary thing as the base of business is ethics. But know a day it is just a passing fade. Every firm is busy in making profits. They have forgotten about their ethics to treat customers as God, to respect every customer. The main ethics they are forgetting is they are using society resources so they have their responsibility towards society. So know youth, the future of India has to take the step to spread awareness and have to protect our ethics.

No one can have any business without customers and if we want that we should be successful in our business we should respect and must satisfy the customers. So there must b some ethics and principles which a company should follow to survive in the market. If there are no rules in the company, the company will take no time to shutdown.

The employees should also work properly for the development of the business, because company is nothing just a group of individuals, so if employees work with full dedication And hard work the company will reach to the top.

Hello friends.

Today I am going to present my view on the given "BUSINESS AND ETHICS ARE FAD'.

Well if you wish to know my view on this, I would rather say yes ethics and business are two face of a coin. In business ethics is maintained since it is this quality that makes a business prosper. Name any company and you will see that both business and ethics are joined hand in hand. It is this ethic that create a bonding of trust and affection towards any organization with an employee. Any business where there is no ethics then that business will be ruined.

Business Ethics 2 simple rules.

1. The old customers should stay. They should have there own place in the company. They should be never compromised for anyone.

2. The company should attract new customers. They should be able to satisfy them.

It should always be a win-win-win (old-new-company) situation.

Customer is happy implies company is happy. Simple these ethics are the most important to be followed. In the fast moving world, no matter how much we change if these 2 simple rules are followed I would say Ethics is business are not just passing fad.

Hello friends.

According to my point of view ethics are not a passing fad it plays a very important role for the organizations. I think than the word ethics means that "neeti" it means that a way for get a profit for the organizations. If I take an example like cricket match before the playing matches both teams are make their ethics for how to achieve the goal how to stop the players for making a big score. Same idea used in business sector. If the organizations not have own ethics I think they are not achieve a big goal. So ethics are not passing fad.

Ya, it is true in far extend. In today corporate culture the only things which matter most is Profit at any cost. To make more profit companies are just ignoring the ethical value which is really needed in the corporate world.

In today scenario, companies are not even bother about the ethical values because they have the feeling that you can't make enough money though the way of ethics. They are busy in making money and continuously avoiding the importance of ethical value. This is not a bad idea to make profit but to ignore the ethics is not fair.

Hi I believe ethics are the basic flagstones of our culture in general. To be more specific, we have all witnessed the doom and demise of once-a-very-revered corporation "Satyam". Had it not been for the mere profits, the company wouldn't have faced the challenges its now dealing with. I guess internal audits and like some of my friends quoted "Corporate Social responsibility" groups need to be more effective and vigilant in cross verifying the details of the proceedings occurring in the company. That's what I guess shall take us all through !

Now a days ethics is a things people used this word for other, in fact, there is no ethical things for big business man in the world. They used only for their profit. We learned ethics in school or college only, but in my opinion no one have seen ever. In our country congress party creates imagination for people and our people trust on them and there is a problem. People should change their mind who at top level in business and their should be opposed by people whenever it is happening. I think there must be guideline on ethics.

Thank you.

I agree with the statement that "ethics in business are just a passing fad" nowadays most of the companies are following their ethics at the early stage of their organization. Once they achieved their target, they will follow the ethics that makes their business in a profitable way, they won't think about their customers, example networking companies and educational institutes. In educational institute they will be asking donations to give admissions in their respective institute. This kind of actions is not a good ethics for any business.
