Abstract -“Professional Ethics and Getting Ahead”
It is said that good guys finish last. Or that the only way to go up is to compromise our ethical values. Although such statements are popular, and they are popular because it justifies the worst sort of behaviour, it is not true. In this seminar, we will learn from evidence on ethical successes and strategies to maintain ethical behaviour in a sometimes unethical world, in particular in the engineering field.
