The Brian Picot Chair in Ethical Leadership has been hard at work with adjunct research fellow James Bushell, Director of MOTIF, on the New Zealand business integrity booklet, which is due to be launched in July 2021.

On the international scene, New Zealand has gained an enviable reputation for anti-corruption, integrity and transparency. Integrity, transparency and ethical standards are major tools enabling New Zealand organisations to build trust and better relationships. These tools also help organisations perform better in a more competitive market environment as they build better relationships and further enhance our country’s reputation, resulting in increased economic benefits.

The business integrity booklet will feature a range of interesting organisations to showcase examples of transparency and integrity practices and the associated economic benefits.

The business integrity booklet offers New Zealand organisations a unique opportunity to promote integrity, transparency and ethical standards in a way that both benefits their company and the New Zealand economy.

Approximately 10,000 copies will be distributed nationally to our country’s current and future business and government leaders. If you're interested in receiving a copy once the booklet is launched, please contact ethical-leadership@vuw.ac.nz or sign up to our newsletter to received new notifications about the business integrity booklet.
