In the wake of financial meltdown and environmental disaster,
employers increasingly demand that managers have an understanding
of ethical decision making, corporate social responsibility and
values-based management. Business ethics is therefore increasingly
being taught in business schools and is a rapidly developing
research topic. Managing Responsibly explores the limitations of
the thinking that dominates Western corporate and business culture.
Contributors then draw on non-Western traditions and experience to
suggest workable inter-cultural models to enhance organizational
effectiveness in an increasingly globalised environment. With
chapters written by specialists in economics, management, ethics,
health sciences and history, the editors - one a historian and one
a management specialist - ensure a truly interdisciplinary overall
approach. Part One highlights the acute need for less
self-interested approaches to management if local and global
communities and the environment are to escape on-going damage and
exploitation. Part Two draws on values from Indian and Maori
traditions to propose alternatives to Western models of business
ethics. Part Three suggests ways of approaching the challenges of
developing sustained ethical leadership in the contemporary
globalised economy. This original addition to Gower's Corporate
Social Responsibility Series will appeal to a wide range of
teachers, researchers and higher level students of management, as
well as practitioners participating in executive development
programmes. It will also serve the needs of those with a more
specialist interest in business ethics and in sustainable and
responsible management.
