The considered characteristics of ethics have been highlighted as (highest to lowest): Helping the company | Relaxed atmosphere |Encouragement | Responsibility | Respect | Teamwork | Communication | Problem prevention | Trust.


I think that the value of the research sits in some critical points:

๐Ÿ’Ž A culture of ethics boosts Stakeholdersโ€™ loyalty (employees, customers, and suppliers), according to 91% of interviewees.




โ—๏ธ There are internal influences on ethics: from the company, from the employees and mutual influence.


โ—๏ธThe majority of entrepreneurs (84%) think it is essential for companies to act ethically

โ—๏ธThere are no ethical standards in 78% of the SMEs

โ—๏ธIt is not important how much education one has because it doesnโ€™t affect ethics, according to 69% of entrepreneurs

โ—๏ธ57% believe that people with higher EQ are more ethical at work.


We have already included ethics in our CAST assessment model (๐‚๐špability and ๐—ฆustainability for ๐—งransformation) for the benefit of future clients.
