Biz heads from India and abroad discuss ethics and business








Bangalore, Feb 8 (IANS) Around 750 business leaders from India and abroad Friday began a two-day discussion here on "Corporate Culture and Spirituality".

IT major Infosys chairman K. V. Kamath told the gathering that "an organization's DNA is its culture and one needs to fine tune it in a holistic manner".

Articulation of corporate social responsibility and transparency for common good is the key to change," he said at the meet organized jointly by Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FKCCI) and The Art of Living (AoL) in association with World Forum for Ethics in Business.
