Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truth can be known with Theanthropic Ethics, which is one of the few scientific ethical categories. Dr. Brian Keen has researched numerous ethical categories, and has found only Theanthropic Ethics understands that there is one universally applicable Truth. The Truth has practical application in every enterprise, business, or profession. Any business, enterprise, or profession operating in an ethical manner will have the necessary POWER to succeed. Accounting is featured since accountants as professionals must utilize scientific methodologies. Businesses and enterprises require POWER Living People to employ, since ethical employees are an asset in Truth. Many entrepreneurs are POWER Living People. Dr. Keen proves through conclusions from objective data that the Truth has relevance for today. Ethical dilemmas can be resolved through adherence to the Truth. For example, would you allow a cashier to accept two $5 bills for a product costing $45, and give a $10 bill for change? Would adherence to a philosophy that 5 + 5 = 55 be sufficient? Dr. Keen knows the Truth that 5 + 5 = 10 when the same types are added. Living the Truth is ethical when utilizing this scientifically-verifiable ethical category, which is confirmed in Theanthropic Ethics.
Download or read book Applied Business Ethics Foundations For Study And Daily Practice written by Mathias Schuz and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What has ethics got to do with my job? How can I take on ethical responsibility and help to make my company more successful at the same time? Although 'ethical responsibility' has become something of a catchphrase these days, most people only have a vague idea what it means and how it can be demonstrated in actual practice.Disasters like the Volkswagen's emission scandal, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the nuclear meltdown of Fukushima, the global financial crisis, and countless lesser-known cases of damage to human beings and the environment are the result of unethically irresponsible business practices. Efforts to maximize profits frequently lead to reckless behavior, as those in charge focus on short-term benefits and ignore social and environmental risks. Their actions have negative consequences, not only for the victims but, in many cases, for the perpetrators themselves too. Aggrieved interest groups or disadvantaged stakeholders may react with strikes, public protests, or boycotts, jeopardizing their reputation and profitability.This textbook, Applied Business Ethics, is the result of many years of research work and lecturing, and is an attempt to present the most important principles and the latest approaches in business ethics to students, teachers, and business practitioners alike, and help them to make business decisions that everyone concerned will benefit from, rather than just a few fortunate stakeholders.The author illustrates his theoretical subject matter with practical examples of real-life situations and provides numerous exercises to help the reader grasp complex issues, moral dilemmas, and business risks better. In clear, accessible, and easily understandable terms, he demonstrates how ways of finding satisfactory solutions can be found in a systematic way thanks to interdisciplinary research and philosophical reflection.

Download or read book Applying Care Ethics to Business written by Maurice Hamington and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-07-29 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applying Care Ethics to Business is a multidisciplinary collection of original essays that explores the intersection between the burgeoning field of care ethics and business. Care ethics is an approach to morality that emphasizes relational, particularist, and affective dimensions of morality that evolved from feminist theory and today enjoys robust intellectual exploration. Care ethics emerged out of feminist theory in the 1980's and the greatest contribution to moral analysis among Women' Studies scholars. Today, feminists and non-feminist scholars are increasingly taking care ethics seriously. Applying care to the marketplace is a natural step in its maturity. Applying Care Ethics to Business is the first book-length analysis of business and economic cases and theories from the perspective of care theory. Furthermore, given economic turbulence and the resulting scrutiny of market practices, care ethics provides fresh and timely insight into ideal business values and commitments. In many ways, care ethics’ emphasis upon connection and cooperation as well as the growth and well-being of the other make it appear to be the antithesis of the corporate character. Nevertheless, many contemporary theorists question if traditional moral approaches based on autonomous agents is adequate to address a shrinking and interconnected world—particularly one that is marked by global markets. Applying Care Ethics to Business offers a unique opportunity to rethink corporate responsibility and business ethics.
