Edwin Hartman offers an account of his intellectual journey from
Aristotle to organization theory to business ethics to an
Aristotelian approach to business ethics. Aristotle's work in
metaphysics and psychology offers some insights into the
explanation of behavior. Central to this sort of explanation is
characteristically human rationality. Central to successful
organizations is characteristically human sociability. That human
beings are by nature rational and sociable is the basis of
Aristotle's ethics. Though a modern organization is not a polis in
Aristotle's sense, it has good reason to treat people as rational
and sociable on the whole, and thereby to preserve the organization
as a commons of people linked by something much like Aristotle's
account of strong friendship. Organizations that are successful in
this respect, particularly those that deal with a nationally
diverse workforce, may offer a far-reaching and attractive model.
