Members of the Hawaii chapter of the BYU Management Society, business majors, SIFE members, and interested students and faculty alike gathered to hear BYU–Hawaii President Steven C. Wheelwright speak on ethical and moral practices in business and leadership on March 31.
Attendees gained a lot from President Wheelwright's insights. Pisal Touch, senior in hospitality and tourism management from Cambodia, said, "I like that President Wheelwright said people cheat to make themselves better than they deserve to be."
"As you get more trust in an organization, it has more ability to do great things than before," said President Wheelwright. He used examples from his past to show how exercising ethical and moral leadership practices have made a positive difference in his life. He spoke of his years at Harvard Business School, where he altered the classroom settings in order to fulfill the school's mission of developing "outstanding leaders who will contribute to the well being of society."
