Business Ethics for Better Behavior

De: Jason Brennan, William English, John Hasnas, Peter Jaworski

Narrado por: Asa Siegel

A clear and concise roadmap for ethical business behavior using commonsense moral principles

Business Ethics for Better Behavior concisely answers the three most pressing ethical questions business professionals face: What makes business practices right or wrong? Why do normal, decent businesspeople of good will sometimes do the wrong thing? And how can we use the answer to these questions to get ourselves, our coworkers, our bosses, and our employees to behave better?

Bad behavior in business rarely results from bad will. Most people mean well much of the time. But most of us are vulnerable. We all fall into moral traps, usually without even noticing.

Business Ethics for Better Behavior teaches business professionals, students, and other listeners how to become aware of those traps, how to avoid them, and how to dig their way out if they fall in. It integrates the best work in psychology, economics, management theory, and normative philosophy into a simple action plan for ensuring the best ethical performance at all levels of business practice. This is a book anyone in business, from an entry-level employee to CEO, can use.

This is a great production of a great text book.

I assigned this text in my business ethics course and it's, by far, the best business ethics text I've ever read. It's crystal clear, interesting, topical, and rigorous. It's so accessible that it actually works as a audiobook too and, dare I say, fun to read that way. Next time I teach that class, I am going to offer my students the option to listen on Audible and see how it goes.
