Abstract "Conversations about real-life ethically challenging situations form the core of the book, aimed specifically at business school teachers and students. Conversations on Ethics and Business offers a direct line and insight into workplace ethics for an undergraduate and graduate audience. Each topical 'conversation' is followed by a curated and guided list of additional readings. The book also offers an introduction to business ethics for working professionals who may not have had any formal exposure to ethical examination of the typical problems of running a business. The authors approach business ethics as an integrative part of everyday business decisions, with the aim of promoting better choices, and creating value for various stakeholders. Filled with real-world examples, Conversations on Ethics and Business serves as a primer for all readers interested in business ethics, and applied ethics in general."--Cover page 4.
