- Abstract
Unethical behaviors are a significant problem in today's workplace. This article presents an experiential exercise, using a design thinking tool called Six Thinking Hats [de Bono, 1985], that business instructors can use to help students develop problem-solving skills to address these behaviors. This exercise makes students aware of the most common unethical behaviors in the workplace and the problems they cause. Students also reflect on their behaviors as employees and consider their future behaviors as managers. It is ideal for undergraduate business ethics courses. However, it can also be conducted in other management courses, such as courses in leadership and organizational behavior.
