Ethics play an important role in law as they govern a lawyer's behavior and help maintain fairness and justice. While laws provide rules and punishments, ethics inform what actions are morally right. There are often conflicts between what the law says and one's ethical beliefs. These conflicts can exacerbate over time and damage trust in the legal system if transparency and the lawyer's duty to the client are compromised. Ultimately, discussing ethics in law is meaningful only if the honorable nature of the legal profession remains the top priority.1.2 values and ethics

The document discusses values, ethics, and how they relate to law and society. It states that a society's values are reflected in its laws and that ethics are what a society considers right and wrong.

As an example, it outlines how some of Australia's laws have changed to reflect evolving social values regarding the role of women, capital punishment, and homosexuality.Legal Innovation Zone

Ryerson University launched the Legal Innovation Zone on April 29th to encourage innovative thinking and shake up Canada's largely static legal system of the past 100 years. The Zone will bring together students, entrepreneurs, lawyers, tech experts, and government members to develop new ideas for the legal field. Ryerson President Sheldon Levy believes this collaborative space could lead to innovations like the "Uber of law." Attorney General Madeleine Meilleur praised the concept of creative young minds working together in the justice sector to improve access to justice. The Legal Innovation Zone is the latest addition to Ryerson's zone learning model of collaborative spaces for developing sustainable new businesses and social ventures.Ruz Chishty : Scaling up - Going Global - TSD17

Scaling a business is not a linear process dependent only on costs and revenue. It is influenced by non-linear factors like location, market dynamics, trends, and timing on both the micro and macro levels. To scale successfully, a business must bring together strategic decisions about these non-linear elements like where and when to expand rather than relying only on a linear cost-revenue analysis.5. how to choose your investor startups.be

Some ambitious entrepreneurs fail to scale due to a lack of understanding of key business concepts needed for growth. They remain focused only on the initial idea rather than developing it into a profitable solution or mature organization.

This document discusses challenges facing Generation Y entrepreneurs in Africa. It notes that while Generation Y is often perceived as bold, innovative, and entrepreneurial, entrepreneurship is actually relatively uncommon among young people. Few young people own stock in private companies or are business owners themselves. The document outlines three pillars of entrepreneurship - being bold, planning carefully, and taking calculated risks. However, Generation Y entrepreneurs may struggle with overconfidence, impatience, miscalculated risks, and risk aversion. The document emphasizes that success is about thinking, learning from failures, exploration, and perseverance rather than never failing, brilliant strategies, or large social media followings. It promotes staying dedicated to outcomes through challenges.Philippe Mouchard: Intrapreneurship - Corporate innovation - TSD 17

The Government of India Act, 1935 was a compromise document that attempted to balance British control with Indian aspirations for autonomy. While it introduced several modern governance features like federalism, provincial autonomy, and bicameralism, its undemocratic nature, limited franchise, and excessive central control made it unacceptable to Indian political movements.
It ultimately failed to satisfy the democratic aspirations of the Indian people, but it laid important groundwork for post-independence constitutional frameworks in both India and Pakistan.Josaya - Abstract for the research of the youth development.pdf

This division can affect public discourse, policymaking, and social relationships, making collaboration and consensus more challenging.
