Warren Buffet Essays are a Classic for Corporate Governance
The Warren Buffet essays are as good for Corporate America as Milton Friedman's papers were for Free Markets or Henry Kissinger's essays for Foreign Affairs. The stuff Warren Buffet wrote about is timeless. They are old now, but could have been written yesterday. Remember he is old school not a stock flipper, although today you could say he is a market maker, as his investments move stocks and industries. Well, I guess Kramer on TV is too these days.

Business Ethics-What's Happening Where We Work?
The National Business Ethics Survey (NBES) provides an overview of ethics in the workplace and the 2005 version indicates that ethical misconduct is increasing. And this is after Enron, et al. The NBES included more than 3,000 American workers and their survey showed that more than half of American workers have observed at least one type of ethical misconduct in the workplace. Yet, employee reporting of the misconduct they observe is down by 10 percent. This is cause for alarm, in my opinion, and more businesses need to be aware of what is happening with ethics at work today.
