Other leading professions have accepted codes of conduct (e.g., the bar association in the
practice of law and the Hippocratic oath in medicine); management has not. 62 Some argue
that management needs an accepted code of conduct, 63 holding members to a high professional
standard and imposing consequences for misconduct. Misconduct by an attorney,
for example, can result in being disbarred and losing the right to practice law. Likewise,
medical doctors can lose their professional accreditations if they engage in misconduct.
