Sensible Solutions is passionate about fashioning fundamental alternatives yielding effective and ethical leadership.
Dilemma
- In recent years increasing attention has been given to unethical behavior. Practices ranging from embezzlement to overstatement of financial performance have spurred great concern among our society.
- Historically, there has not been a clear indication of how these practices might have an impact on organizational performance effectiveness. Sadly the results of numerous studies over the years have been mixed: both positive and negative relationships as well as no relationship.
- Nevertheless scholarship suggests that unethical behavior might have a negative impact on a firm's ability to achieve sustained profitability and performance.
Solution
Sensible Solutions offers five common sense principles that will enhance and improve performance effectiveness.
- The organization's ethical standard mirrors the head and not the tail.
- The organization is made up of people.
- Core values are not outside the vision but shapes the vision.
- Operating under the guise of the proverbial box creates barriers and not change.
- Ethical policies and procedures are guidance tools not personal transformation tools.
