Ethical Risks in Digitally Managed Project Teams
A new global scenario and “a new digital world” is coming, and we cannot ignore it. Project managers leading projects online face an added complexity, which causes additional ethics issues to cope with. How to manage employees’ work/life balance? How to adjust compensation and benefits to the new working conditions? How to communicate with remotely working employees and monitor them? While tackling these and many other new issues that affected corporate ethics, some project managers may rely on standards and legislation, while others lead by example. A combination of the authors’ personal experience combined with an academic literature review and a survey of more than 50 participants of 17 projects was done to support the conclusions and recommendations presented in this paper.
