Ethics and Employee Communication

Communicating internally in an ethical way, and in compliance with laws across the globe, isn't negotiable—it's table stakes. Chapter 6 covers the increasing need for ethical practices in transparency and candor when communicating with employees. More recent examples of employee activism (such as employees demanding their companies divest from Russia after the invasion of Ukraine) highlight why doing the business the right way—and communicating effectively—has serious consequences for internal stakeholders as well as customers and shareholders. Ethics plays a significant role in the ecosystem with how a communication plan is created and executed.
