Decision Analysis
Ethics and learning in organizations
An organization, such as a business, a government department, a charity, or a club, is an organized group of people with a particular purpose. Although such a purpose is common among all individuals in an organization, the reasons and
motivations that each organizational member has for achieving that purpose might differ from individual to individual (Pérez-López 2018).
This chapter discusses the impact of individual decision-making and learning on organizational learning and shows how ethical decision-making
is critical for the personal development of people as well as to facilitate that an organization achieves its goals. The chapter is mainly based on the research of
Pérez-López (1991, 2018).
