Summary

Success and scalability stem from the ethical application of business practices. But, in a fast-paced, revenue-driven world, it’s almost just become an afterthought. In almost every company, there is a written or unwritten code for how people should behave in the workplace. But without carefully examining and applying a work culture that reflects ethical standards, company culture may just as well be another set of words plastered on the wall. World-renowned TEDx speaker, Yonason Goldson, shares with us the importance of business ethics in the foundation of healthy work relationships and success. He tells us why startups also need to prioritize business ethics, the significance of creating a positive employee experience, and the role that trust, teamwork, and accountability play in paving the way for scalability.
