    Third Annual Teaching Ethics in Universities Conference: Master Class in Business Ethics

    Sponsored by the Wheatley Institution at Brigham Young University and the Society for Business Ethics. 

    You've probably heard a number of lectures on effective teaching of business ethics.  Would you like to experience such excellent teaching firsthand?  Come experience several award-winning ethics professors teaching a favorite lecture or case, and walk away with the teaching materials to the lectures and cases you've just seen presented.   I'm very pleased to share with you the list of professors teaching at this year's conference.  These Master Teachers, who will be honored with the "Master Teacher in Ethics Award" at the conference in 2012, are as follows:

    Joshua D. Margolis, James Dinan and Elizabeth Miller Professor of Business Administration & Faculty Director, Christensen Center for Teaching and Learning, Harvard Business School

    Kirk O. Hanson, John Courtney Murray S.J. University Professor of Social Ethics & Executive Director, Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, Santa Clara University; Emeritus Faculty Member, Stanford University

    Daylian Cain, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior, Yale School of Management

    Adam Galinsky, Morris and Alice Kaplan Professor of Ethics and Decision in Management, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University

    Andrew C. Wicks, Ruffin Professor of Business Administration; Director, Olsson Center for Applied Ethics; Director, Doctoral Program; Darden School of Business, University of Virginia

    Katie Liljenquist, Assistant Professor, Organizational Leadership and Strategy, Marriott School of Management, Brigham Young University

     

    The event will be held in Provo, Utah beginning at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 22nd and ending at noon on Thursday, May 24th, 2012. Registration fees will be the same as in previous years: Regular $400, Early Bird $300 (until March 23), Doctoral student $200.  Come in 2012 because your next opportunity to hear such excellent teaching by such fine instructors all together in one place will not occur again until 2014.
