Barry Padgett on "Blind Spots and Guilty Bystanding"

Well, I'm back - after 4 months of teaching two great courses and wonderful students.  The highlight of the semester was the annual "Lead from the Heart" professional ethics lecture sponsored by the Center for Organizational Ethics at Marian University.   Dr. Barry Padgett, James M. Medlin Chair of Business Ethics at Belmont University and author of Professional Morality and Guilty Bystanding: Merton's Conjectures and the Value of Work spoke on "Blind Spots and Guilty Bystanding: What College Sports and Corporate Ethics Have in Common."  Dr. Padgett also visited my two classes: Business Ethics and Personal and Professional Ethics.  It was a treat for the students to get to "talk back" to the author of a book they were reading.  To view a podcast of Dr. Padgett's lecture, click here and after iTunes downloads click on "Center for Orga. . . ."
