One unable to dance blames the unevenness of the floor. —Malay Proverb
Tyco. Enron. Martha Stewart. Marion Jones. The lists of the pathologically corrupt may get out of hand. But, with certain ethicists sprouting amid the industrial and cultural landscape of the US, perhaps things aren’t too bad. Don’t believe me? Believe Michael Josephson, no stranger to the world of ethics.
Wednesday, October 10, Josephson will visit CSULB when he sits down for a conversation with Art Levine, host of the weekly talk show Straight Talk, at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center. The theme of the conversation is “Ethics in America.” It will mark the launch of the new Distinguished Speakers Series.
The conversation begins at 2:00 p.m., preceded by live music, refreshments and exhibits. Doors will open at 12:30 p.m., when tickets will be available for purchase ($20 for general admission with advance purchase; $25 at the door, if available).
About the Speaker
Topping Josephson’s long list of endeavors, he established the Joseph and Edna Josephson Institute of Ethics. However, he first established himself as a notable ethics consultant to major business leaders at Johnson & Johnson and Proctor & Gamble, to conducting ethical programs for government and law enforcement, such as the US Army, IRS, and FBI. Josephson has also developed youth programs, Character Counts! and Pursuring Victory with Honor, to expand the understanding and use of ethics in young people’s lives. (Watch the video below and be inspired!) Also, Josephson has also had careers as a law professor and as a publishing entrepreneur.
Admit it. It matters. Ethics in life.
