Description: In this course we focus on illuminating aspects of the role of values in commerce through several case studies. These cases include a company that did not adhere to laudable values and failed catastrophically; a company that navigates legal, ethical, and public relations challenges created by adhering to a certain set of values; and a company that reaped benefits socially and financially from a values-driven approach. Each company experienced a crisis, which highlighted the values employed within the company. We also discuss our own professional-personal mission and giving voice to our values. We conclude the course with an articulation of our institutional and personal mission and values.
