The TWI mission is to build ethics in community-wherever people work together to meet a common goal. We are a unique institution that embraces the belief that ethics is more about people, their relationships and personal responsibility for decision making, and less about forcing ethical behavior through rules and codes of conduct. TWI is an independent nonprofit ethics institute that is self-funding through our social entrepreneurial model. We do this through the learning and training tools we have created and sell to universities and training departments across the country, through the ethics-focused training programs we offer, and through the services we provide organizations to assist them in maximizing their effectiveness through building an ethics-impacted work environment.
