The workshop theme is "Business Strategies and Ethics". In the current workshop, our aim is to expand the dynamics that affect managerial perceptions and applications toward business ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Although there are significant advances in the areas in Business Ethics and CSR which are well established in Anglo-Saxon countries, it is still in infancy stage in less developed nations. In this workshop, we invite academics and students from different universities to contribute to these areas, and elaborate on the gaps in managerial concepts. Further areas for research, in areas of teaching business ethics and CSR and practical applications could be of interest.
