Like every profession, entrepreneurs sometimes find themselves caught in ethical dilemmas where they are forced to make decisions about what is right and wrong. A recent Wall Street Journal article suggests that unethical behavior is typical of entrepreneurship, stating that, “Some entrepreneurs stay the ethical course. But there seem at times to be the exceptions.”
This begs the question — are there some circumstances where seemingly ‘unethical’ behavior is acceptable? Are there gray areas where the lines of right and wrong are blurred? What moral code should entrepreneurs live up to, and is it sometimes okay for entrepreneurs to lie? In this article, we’ll give insight into some of the most common ethical dilemmas faced by entrepreneurs.
