Current Research: Values and the Workplace
Use the Capella library to locate a peer-reviewed journal article that focuses on values in the workplace. Then, analyze and report on the article. Be sure you complete the following:
- Summarize the article’s important points.
- How could you apply the information that you learned in this article to your current or future work situation?
- Cite and reference your text and the peer-reviewed journal article in your initial post.
- Include the journal article’s persistence link.
Note: Remember when you are researching that many fields have research devoted to ethical leadership and ethical policies. Do not initially restrict yourself to research in any single field. Cast a broad net looking for relevant research in fields from business to community service to human behavior. After you have a sense of what is out there, then you can narrow down your search.
