Let’s talk about ethics…the workshop, that is.

I must admit, I didn’t really expect to get much out of this workshop. I’m glad to say I was completely wrong. Similar to my Philosophy class, topics were raised that questioned our moral values. Would you report a co-worker spending company money on personal things? Would you accept personal gifts if it meant compromising your career? Things like this were discussed, and it was done in a very interesting way. The workshop was very interactive; upon hearing an issue, we would divide into two separate groups with different viewpoints and debate them. Since these topics brought our own personal views into the question, a lot of people were willing to speak, which led to rich discussion and productive argument. The workshop leader was very friendly in convincing people to participate, which didn’t even turn out to be necessary since everybody was fired up and ready to talk. This meeting was full of interesting people and thought-provoking exchanges of views, and I’m very glad to have attended it.
