Abstrakt

Purpose: the article is devoted to critical reflection on the present model of ethical education
of managers in Poland. It attempts to outline a model that could be adopted to meet
the current challenges of social change.

Design: the first part of the article is written from a philosophical perspective, which brings to mind the Greek Paideia. The second part is an attempt to analyze the imperfect Polish educational reality concerning the formation of future managers’ attitudes.

Findings: the author’s arguments focus on the proposal to transform the “educational” teaching system of ethics into a “social interaction” one.

Originality: in the summary, the author presents specific actions to be taken at Polish universities so they can quickly move from the traditional model of managers’ education to a modern pro-social model of education based on social interaction.
