  Codes of ethics that companies provide to their employees are perhaps the most effective way to
  encourage ethical behavior. A code of ethics is a written guide to acceptable and ethical behavior
  as defined by an organization; it outlines uniform2
   policies, standards, and punishments for
  violations. Because employees know what is expected of them and what will happen if they
  violate the rules, a code of ethics goes a long way toward encouraging ethical behavior. However,
  codes cannot possibly cover every situation. Companies must also create an environment in
  which employees recognize the importance of complying with3
   the written code. Managers must
  provide direction by fostering communication, actively modeling and encouraging ethical
  decision making, and training employees to make ethical decisions.
  From PRIDE, BUSINESS (LIBRARY) 7ED, 7E.  2002 Cengage Learning.

  Egocentrism refers to the tendency of a person to confuse his or her own point of view and that of
  another person. As young children illustrate, the term does not necessarily imply selfishness at the
  expense of others, but a centering on the self in thinking. Piaget1
   demonstrated this by showing
  children a table on which models of three mountains had been constructed and asking them how a
  doll would see the three mountains if it sat at various positions around the table. Three-year-olds
  commonly believed the dolls saw the layout no differently from the way they did.
  Adapted from Seifert and Hoffnung, Child and Adolescent Development, 5th ed. (Boston: Houghton
  Mifflin, 2000), 263.
