There is an urgent need to understand how private and public
organisations can play a role in promoting human values such as
fairness, dignity, respect and care. Globalisation, technological
advance and climate change are changing work, organisations and
systems in ways which foster inequality, alienation and collective
risk. Against this backdrop, organisations are being urged to make
their contribution to the common good, take account of the
interests of multiple stakeholders, and respond ethically as well
as efficiently to complex challenges which transcend traditional
organisational and state boundaries. Ethics, Meaningfulness, and
Mutuality poses critical questions related to organisational design
by challenging limits to current thinking, such as the neglect by
political philosophers of markets, firms and stakeholders, or by
organisational theorists of business ethics. In so doing, the book
advances our understanding of the theory and practice of ethical
organising. Specifically, meaningfulness and mutuality will be used
to yield values and principles for a philosophy of ethical
organising which includes an account of human values in morally
desirable collective action, and examines the relationship of
collective action to the contested concept of shared value
creation. Within a philosophy of ethical organising, mutuality
permits an examination of the unavoidable relational nature of
collective action, whereas meaningfulness addresses fundamental
human concerns for significance and leading a life we have reason
to value. By addressing our status as relational beings with human
needs for meaning, a philosophy of ethical organising brings
critical thinking to the creation of morally informed
organisational practices which are not only instrumentally
beneficial for addressing wicked problems, but are normatively
desirable for human flourishing.
