MGT-445: Ethical & Legal Business Concepts

Getting Started

In Proverbs 3:5-6 (New International Version), we are told, “Trust in
the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in
all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
God calls us to trust Him, but it is sometimes easier said than done.
While there may be a “right” answer, we can often find secular support
for alternate decisions.

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

  • Employ appropriate secular and Christian ethical principles to make management decisions.

Resources

  • Bible

Background Information

In order to minister to our non-Christian friends and colleagues, it
is important to understand how others determine right from wrong.
Christians do not hold a monopoly on ethical behavior. We can learn from
others. Along those same lines, it is important for us to be prepared
to defend our own faith and explain why secular theorists may not be
correct.
