Description
Two experts in the field look at business ethics in a radically new way, stressing the importance of considering ethics as an issue that can be taught and managed much like other cultural characteristics. It provides readers with an understanding of how corporations can positively influence the behavior of employees, and how to improve the ethical decision making capabilities of their employees. Uses easy-to-understand terms to describe ethical dilemmas, concentrating on typical dilemmas businesses encounter, how managers can encourage ethics in their departments and how an organization can manage ethics through its culture. Features actual company examples and advice from managers in organizations who are "doing things right."
