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.
