SUMMARY:Workshop on Teaching Professional Business Ethics
DESCRIPTION:TOMATO²—pronounced “tomāto\, tomɑto”—is Talks On Morality Across The Ocean\, a workshop aimed at promoting professional engagement between ethicists on both sides of the Atlantic. \nTOMATO² takes place on alternating years at Georgetown University in Washington\, DC\, US and Durham University in Durham\, UK.

We invite submissions from faculty\, post-docs and (post)graduate students who have advanced to the ABD stage from anywhere in the world.

Interested parties should seek our annual Call for Paper posted at Philjobs.com or contact the organizers at tomato2organizers@gmail.com. \n\n\n\nTeaching business ethics in an effective way presents a difficult challenge. Courses that focus on abstract philosophical ethics employ terminology and methodology that are not familiar to most business students. Yet courses that employ the strictly empirical methodology of the social sciences lack a truly normative core. Further\, learning about ethics in the abstract is often far removed from the difficult ethical decisions business people confront in the real world of business. \n\n\n\nAt the McDonough School of Business\, we have developed a method of teaching business ethics through experiential learning that is truly normative\, communicated in terms readily understood by business students\, and involves actual ethical decision-making on the part of the students. We have found that our approach results in students becoming more invested in the course and more committed to successfully resolving the ethical issues that confront them in a business environment. \n\n\n\nThe Workshop on Teaching Professional Business Ethics through Experiential Learning: The Georgetown Approach is designed to acquaint those who will be teaching business ethics in both business schools and philosophy departments with the various individual techniques we have developed and train those who are interested in how to use them in an integrated manner to create a highly effective business ethics course. \n\n\n\nThe workshop is sponsored by the Georgetown Institute for the Study of Markets and Ethics. The Institute will cover the cost of travel and two night’s lodging for those attending the workshop. \n\n\n\nThis year’s workshop will be held at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business on May 28-29\, 2026. To apply for the workshop send a CV and a 1-page cover letter to the director of the institute\, Dr. Michael Douma\, at mjd289@georgetown.edu\, before February 5\, 2026.
