YOUR LYING AND CHEATING WAYS

Business Finance

  • Isn’t this “ethics” business all about not lying and cheating?
  • If other people do it, shouldn’t I be doing it to them?
  • Who is more unethical: men or women? Younger folks or older folks? Experienced negotiators or inexperienced ones? The highly educated or the not-so-educated? Sociology majors or business majors? Are some nationalities/cultural groups/personality types more likely to lie and cheat in negotiations?
  • After taking an ethics course, will I be a more ethical negotiator? If not, how can I deal with the other party’s deceptions?
  • In answering these questions, incorporate your answers from the SINS II Scale questionnaire and personal or business experience.
