The virtue approach to business ethics is a topic of increasing
importance within the business world. Focusing on Aristotle's
theory that the virtues of character, rather than actions, are
central to ethics, Edwin M. Hartman introduces readers of this book
to the value of applying Aristotle's virtue approach to business.
Using numerous real-world examples, he argues that business leaders
have good reason to take character seriously when explaining and
evaluating individuals in organisations. He demonstrates how the
virtue approach can deepen our understanding of business ethics,
and how it can contribute to contemporary discussions of character,
rationality, corporate culture, ethics education and global ethics.
Written by one of the foremost Aristotelian scholars working in the
field today, this authoritative introduction to the role of virtue
ethics in business is a valuable primer for graduate students and
academic researchers in business ethics, applied ethics and
philosophy.
