The Ethics of Management

By LaRue Tone Hosmer

Book Overview

It is often said that ethics is essential for leadership; Hosmer argues that leadership is also essential for ethics. The theme of The Ethics of Management, 7e, is that business firms today operate in a competitively- intense, technologically-complex and culturally-diverse global economy. Pressures to dodge issues and cut corners are greater than ever before. The Ethics of Management provides a very explicit three-part framework to analyze those problems by combining economic outcomes, legal requirements and ethical principles. Students will learn how to convincingly present their moral points of view to others in order to jointly serve their companies, protect their careers, and improve their societies.

Excellent framework where few exist

This text is one of several that are required reading for full time MBA students. It is one of the only texts I have found that logically spells out a coherent model for ethics decision making in the field of business. Case studies are simple, but illustrative of key points.
