Business Ethics and the Accounting Department v1.1Donny Shimamoto
When working at a CPA firm, ethical standards and requirements are pretty straight forward: independence, standards of practice, etc. But once you move outside of the firm, how does the term “ethics” apply to CPAs who are now in finance departments, internal audit, or other leadership positions in business & industry? This thought provoking session will take a look at the results of the 2012 AICPA & CIMA survey on business ethics and highlight the important role that CPAs in business & industry play in helping their organizations to manage their businesses ethically. Learn about the changing role of the accounting department and how you can help ensure that your organization stays out of the news headlines for being “unethical”.

Social media has quickly proven to be a tremendous resource for marketing, human resources, support, and many other business functions.

Improving profitability for small businessBen Wann
In this comprehensive presentation, we will explore strategies and practical tips for enhancing profitability in small businesses. Tailored to meet the unique challenges faced by small enterprises, this session covers various aspects that directly impact the bottom line. Attendees will learn how to optimize operational efficiency, manage expenses, and increase revenue through innovative marketing and customer engagement techniques.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Roy Jones - the Victim
11. Case: Stakeholders ▪ Enablers stakeholders: (stockholders)
JW marriott Owners
▪ Functional stakeholders: (JW Marriott
employee “”Jone) and Chinese Market
“Guests and partners”
▪ Normative stakeholders : Other Hotels
competitors hosted in China
▪ Diffused stakeholders: Media “Twitter”
NGO “Friends of Tibet”
12. Action of Firing Jone from
JW Marriott Ethically or
not from stakeholder JW
Marriott perspectives?
JW Marriott owner: ( Market image)
Marriott used least Utilitarian and least Kantian:
Consequentialism – rightness of action determined solely by consequences
Hedonism – pleasure and only pleasure is the ultimate good (only for profit)
Maximalism – greatest amount of good consequences possible when bad
consequences are considered
But they didn’t achieve the Universalism consequences considered for everyone
But Action was related to the weakness of kantian deontological (lock of emotions)
13. Action of Firing Jone
from JW Marriott
Ethically or not from
stakeholder employee
perspectives?
▪ Employee right:
▪ Jone it was injustice they didn’t use
the two factors of dismissal:
He fried without a good cause
▪ He fired without a fair hearing
▪ One states that JW Marriott didn’t
use the formal statement code of
Ethics specific and loose enough.
14. ▪ Chinese Market “Guests and partners”
they are a stakeholder group and
weighted as influence over and interest
and its relationship to the firm.
▪ Chinese Market Power and interest
high priority stakeholder for its
interest.
Action of Firing Jone
from JW Marriott
Ethically or not from
stakeholder Chinese
market perspectives?
15. ▪ Tibet they are the flame of the
descrimination unjust campaign
comparative to Chinese policy
through effective social media
channel “Twitter”
Action of Firing Jone
from JW Marriott
Ethically or not from
stakeholder “Tibet”
market perspectives?
16. Conclusion &
Suggested
solutions
▪ JW Marriott has the rights to protect its
market image with its customers and
maximize the revenue.
▪ JW Marriott should follow high response to
any issues related to firm image.
▪ JW Marriott should use Fair ethical
business method with employees.
▪ JW Marriott should share its policies with
employees through trainings especially
with customers policies”big deals
customers”.
▪ JW Marriott should use MIX between
deontological(Kantian) and teleological.
▪ Justice by Marriott should be distributed.
17. Interview & Analysis
▪ Interview with Mr. AG , the operation
manager in one of the Egyptian
prominent public enterprise
companie in the field of
Communication.
18. Ethical Culture --
Discriminationُ
To some extent employees are treated
equally although some discriminating
practices were noticed as below.
▪ Age preferences in some positions.
▪ Gender bias in some jobs due to nature or
requirements by job which contradict with society
culture regarding working hours and hard working
environment like remote deserted sites ,…
▪ Sort of Life style or communities discrimination, for
some high community groups or teams against
normal or regular employees.
▪ cases of influence peddling and partiality.
19. Occupational
safety & Health
Environmental
issues
Occupational safety & Health is one of the highest
influenced aspects of company’s ethical consideration.
Workplace safety, fire detection and fighting
systems and related training programs in addition
to medical care programs
Environmental issues are away from prioritized matters, we
still highly dependent in paper documents and even no
consideration for color trash and garbage separation recycle
or environment friendly waste approach.
No agreements with partners ,subcontractors or
vendor regarding environmental issues.
20. Transparency
whistleblowing
Transparency, the term confidential is seems to
be overused, keeping information from others
is considered sort of power and control over
subordinates.
Complains or whistleblowing Managers are
over trusted and whistleblowing process or
even 360 feedback is considered disrespect to
managers.
Fear of retaliation is playing big role that
employees prefer to stay silent.
21. Code of conduct
Training
Code of conduct is implemented among company's
rules and policies but in reality not well used or
communicated or influenced by top management
in as strategic objective.
Code of conduct may only be considered when
problem or conflict is detected.
Business ethics Training is barely considered for
newcomers.
22. Diversity and
Inclusion
▪ Accepting religious and usual Egyptian
cultural practices is normal theme of
company’s culture.
▪ Represented in worship areas, religious
vacations, greetings ,….
▪ Most of facilities are designed and equipped
to be suitable for employees with physical
disabilities.
▪ Special policies are applied for Females in
forms of maternity leaves and work from
23. Ethical strategy
Ethical strategy is barely noticed as
Company most ethical behaviors are
significantly influenced by society culture
due to absence of sense of urgency or
priority of business ethics from top
management or inclusion in company
strategy.
Management of ethics is not highest priority.
Usually Ethics are addressed reactively, after
a high impact problem occurred,
Focus is highly directed towards targets,
deadlines and sales,.....
