    From profit to purpose: how electric utility multinationals visualize systemic change and adaptation of organizational ethical culture through scenarios for 2040
    (MDPI, 2021-10-31) Wagner dal Borgo, Rodrigo José; Sasia Santos, Pedro Manuel
    This article explores how top executives from two electric utility multinationals visualize systemic change and adaptation of their ethical cultures in the future. Allaire and Firsirotu’s framework for organizational culture was incorporated with scenario planning which focused on the influence that the contextual environment exerts on building an organizational ethical culture. The study relied on a holistic and a systems thinking approach to cluster and evaluate six key themes perceived to lead to disruptions in ethical culture. Consequently arriving at the aim to conceive four possible scenarios for 2040 on the future of organizational dynamics and ethical culture in the private electric utility sector. The attributions of relevance for organizational ethical culture and the interrelationships among six key themes demonstrated the greater significance of two themes: From profit to purpose and Environment and Sustainability. As the main driving forces, these two themes guided the development of the scenarios and provided further insights into the flow of power relations, agency, and leverage points for an organizational ethical system.

    Ethics is taking a relevant role in this 21st century, in most cases going hand in hand with scientific-technological advances and the social and cultural implications. However, to date, the evidence on which a university in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) can rely to incorporate the ethical perspective in the educational curriculum successfully is still scarce. To increase the body of knowledge in engineering ethics, this article presents and evaluates the initiative called 'Tecnoetica' implemented at the University of Deusto, Spain. This initiative proposes to include training in ethical principles, dilemmas, and issues from a holistic and participatory standpoint in which lecturers and students are involved. Because of the initiative, an evaluation rubric is presented as the main contribution from which other centers, universities and/or faculties can benefit
