Rochester hosts business ethics summit

The Augsburg College MBA program in Rochester will hold a business ethics summit panel presentation on Thursday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m. at the Augsburg Rochester site. Featured panelists are Mayo Clinic CEO Dr. Glenn Forbes, Crenlo LLC CEO and president Lance Fleming, Rochester Post Bulletin managing editor Jay Furst, and Apollo Liquor and Hospitality president Ari Kolas.

The Business Ethics summit will provide the four panel members an opportunity to discuss ethics and moral decision making in their organization. Panel members will briefly discuss how ethics is a part of their culture and business conduct, and also plays a part in their relationships and dealing with external stakeholders. The open audience Q & A will be a significant part of the event, where panel members will respond to specific audience questions following their individual presentations.
