Movies provide an excellent platform for developing techniques of analysis and sharpening our critical thinking skills. They bring ethics to life and draw us in, so we identify with the characters as they confront issues, make decisions, and face consequences.

Thanks to the engaging ways ethical dilemmas are presented, movies and case studies are perfect vehicles for studying and doing business ethics.
