Abstract:

If business students are to distinguish themselves from the mass mentality in the current environment, in
order to create a better future for themselves and others, they need to see a link between their own ethics
and etiquette, and creating and sustaining successful organizations, despite threatening trends and events
that shape the current environment. This paper focuses on the application of ethics, etiquette, and
strategic management responsibilities, in order to assist business students’ chances for success in facing
a challenging environment.
