Guest guest Posted July 23, 1999 Report Share Posted July 23, 1999 Hello everyone. Next semester, I am teaching a course in business ethics to MBA students. I just finished reviewing some texts and made a couple of book selections. Is anyone aware of a course in business or corporate ethics, where some selection of eastern writings or philosophy might have been used? Just curious. If anyone has some thoughts or suggestions, feel free to pass them on. Thanks. Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's right in business is what is profitable and when the *big* chips are down whoever disagrees will be quickly out of a job. " class dismissed...

Guest guest Posted July 25, 1999 Report Share Posted July 25, 1999 Dear Dr. Luther, I use the following phrase from Mahatma Gandhi on " CUSTOMER SERVICE" on all my lectures. Several times US Army soldiers and management staff requested for a copy of the slide and I have provided them with a copy. CUSTOMER SERVICE A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption on our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider on our business. He is a part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so. Mahatma Gandhi Every day we receive poor customer service from vendors/ shops/ service centres in our day to day life. If you feel this phrase is appropriate, please share with your class. This message from Mahatma Gandhi may change the philosophy of at least some corporations. Ramachandra K. Bhat Springfield VA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
