Title of Article:
The Truth about Lying: What Should We Teach About Lying and Deception in
Negotiations: An Experiential Approach.

Abstract:
The teaching of negotiations poses a particular dilemma for business schools in the
area of ethics. It is normally accepted that negotiations often involve deception if not
outright lying. Yet such behavior in other aspects of business activities is appropriately
condemned. While fraud is illegal in all aspects of business including negotiation,
ethical standards we might ideally like our businesses to adhere to are unrealistic in
the area of negotiations. This paper suggests that business schools would do well to
confront this dilemma; we should convey an honest and realistic notion of the role of
lying in human behavior in general and negotiations in particular. We suggest two
experiential situations that effectively confront this issue by triggering the complex
behaviors that occur in negotiations This allows an honest discussion of the topic
which results from a visceral of lying and being lied to Furthermore, the exercises allow
each student to confront his or her responses to situations in which lying may result in
short-term gain as well as their responses to others in the same situation.

Title:
Building a Better Jigsaw Puzzle: Using a Corporate Partnership as the "Missing
Piece" in the Introduction to Business Course.

Abstract:
For decades, the Introduction to Business/Management course has been a central,
introductory component of most business education undergraduate programs; yet this
course continues to be problematic for both students and faculty. This paper describes
an innovative approach developed for this course. Our challenges were threefold: to
better integrate course concept areas, strengthen the pedagogical foundation of the
course, and more effectively link content and delivery. The key piece in our course
design, the piece that helps address the various challenges, is a partnership that we
developed with a locally headquartered corporation. The partnership model has
helped us achieve the course educational goals and support the central role the course
plays in the curriculum.

Title: Violence against women and girls: the shadow pandemic
Statement by Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, Executive Director of UN Women
Date: Monday, April 6, 2020
With 90 countries in lockdown, four billion people are now sheltering at home from the global contagion of COVID-
19. It’s a protective measure, but it brings another deadly danger. We see a shadow pandemic growing, of violence against
women.
As more countries report infection and lockdown, more domestic violence helplines and shelters across the world are reporting
rising calls for help. In Argentina, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom [1], and the United States [2],
government authorities, women’s rights activists and civil society partners have flagged increasing reports of domestic violence
during the crisis, and heightened demand for emergency shelter [3,4,5]. Helplines in Singapore [6] and Cyprushave registered
an increase in calls by more than 30 per cent [7]. In Australia, 40 per cent of frontline workers in a New South Wales survey
reported increased requests for help with violence that was escalating in intensity [8].
Confinement is fostering the tension and strain created by security, health, and money worries.And it is increasing isolation
for women with violent partners, separating them from the people and resources that can best help them. It’s a perfect storm
for controlling, violent behaviour behind closed doors. And in parallel, as health systems are stretching to breaking point,
domestic violence shelters are also reaching capacity, a service deficit made worse when centres are repurposed for additiona l
COVID-response.
Even before COVID-19 existed, domestic violence was already one of the greatest human rights violations. In the previous 12
months, 243 million women and girls (aged 15-49) across the world have been subjected to sexual or physical violence by an
intimate partner. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, this number is likely to grow with multiple impacts on women’s
wellbeing, their sexual and reproductive health, their mental health, and their ability to participate and lead in the recovery of
our societies and economy.
Wide under-reporting of domestic and other forms of violence has previously made response and data gathering a challenge,
with less than 40 per cent of women who experience violence seeking help of any sort or reporting the crime. Less than 10
per cent of those women seeking help go to the police. The current circumstances make reporting even harder, including
limitations on women’s and girls’ access to phones and helplines and disrupted public services like police, justice and socia l
services. These disruptions may also be compromising the care and support that survivors need, like clinical management of
rape, and mental health and psycho-social support. They also fuel impunity for the perpetrators. In many countries the law is
not on women’s side; 1 in 4 countries have no laws specifically protecting women from domestic violence.
Gender-Based Violence and COVID-19 - UN chief video message
If not dealt with, this shadow pandemic will also add to the economic impact of COVID-19. The global cost of violence against women had
previously been estimated at approximately USD 1.5 trillion. That figure can only be rising as violence increases now, and continues in the
aftermath of the pandemic.
The increase in violence against women must be dealt with urgently with measures embedded in economic support and stimulus packages
that meet the gravity and scale of the challenge and reflect the needs of women who face multiple forms of discrimination.The Secretary-
General has called for all governments to make the prevention and redress of violence against women a key part of their national response
plans for COVID-19. Shelters and helplines for women must be considered an essential service for every country with specific funding and
broad efforts made to increase awareness about their availability.
Grassroots and women’s organizations and communities have played a critical role in preventing and responding to previous crises and
need to be supported strongly in their current frontline role including with funding that remains in the longer-term. Helplines, psychosocial
support and online counselling should be boosted, using technology-based solutions such as SMS, online tools and networks to expand
social support, and to reach women with no access to phones or internet. Police and justice services must mobilize to ensure that incidents
of violence against women and girls are given high priority with no impunity for perpetrators. The private sector also has an important role
to play, sharing information, alerting staff to the facts and the dangers of domestic violence and encouraging positive steps like sharing care
responsibilities at home.
COVID-19is already testing us in ways most of us have never previously experienced, providing emotional and economic shocks that we
are struggling to rise above. The violence that is emerging now as a dark feature of this pandemic is a mirror and a challenge to our values,
our resilience and shared humanity. We must not only survivethe coronavirus, but emerge renewed, with women as a powerful force at the
centre of recovery.
