Ethics has become big business but have businesses become ethical?
This is a central question for today's managers. Managing ethics is
critical in an era characterized by unprecedented corporate power
and a myriad of competing ethical traditions. Giving new insights
into the understanding of ethics for today's organization practice
and managerial behaviour, this timely volume, edited by
well-respected industry authorities, provides an overview and
critique of ethics as they relate to contemporary challenges and
issues (such as globalization, sustainability, consumerism,
neo-liberalism, corporate collapses, leadership and corporate
regulation). This book, an essential read for postgraduate students
of business and ethics, is organized around the core question: What
are the ethics of organizing in today's institutional environment
and what does this mean for the practice of management and the
organization of business? In response to this, the contributors
examine ethics as it is deeply embedded in the everyday practice of
management. Interdisciplinary contributions from the fields of
sociology, philosophy, management, organization studies and public
administration provide unique perspectives, while case studies and
real-life examples illustrate the challenges and dilemmas faced in
practice. Each chapter has a brief overview and editor's
introduction which skilfully summarizes key points and draws
connections between the chapters.
