My title commits me to convincing the reader of three propositions.
First, business ethics as an object of university teaching and research
has been captured by or is in the thrall of another academic discipline,
normative political philosophy. Second, this is a harmful or at least
suboptimal state of affairs about which business people, university
academics, the public at large, or some combination of these should be
concerned. Third, there exists a compelling alternative to business
ethics's capture by or thrall with normative political philosophy
toward which business people, university academics, the public at ...

Whole System Change: The Future Search Conference
The Future Search Conference is one of several collaborative planning methods that take a “whole system” approach. These processes try to replace shelf-bound plans with agendas for action that are developed collaboratively in the course of intensive large-group meetings. Key Concepts To do this, Future Search insists on the basic starting principle: “Get the whole system in the room.” That means including everyone needed to make change happen – decision-makers from all the groups involved, internal staff and external stakeholders. A representative cross-section of these players at many levels of ...

is a party that can affect or be affected by the actions of the business as a whole. The stakeholder concept was first used in a 1963 internal memorandum at the Stanford Research institute. It defined stakeholders as "those groups without whose support the organization would cease to exist." The theory was later developed and championed by R. Edward Freeman in the 1980s. Since then it has gained wide acceptance in business practice and in theorizing relating to strategic management , corporate governance , business purpose and corporate social responsibility (CSR). The term has been broadened to include anyone who has ...

At that point the new strategy is already determined and managers only have to figure out a way to roll it out and get people to join. Pater et al.

Last Sunday: Third to last match day in the Italian soccer league, Serie A. At S.S. Lazio Rome’s home match against Inter Milan, Lazio fans started shouting “If you win we’ll beat you up”. The interesting thing about it: They were shouting at their own team! What was going on? To understand the Lazio fans we have to look at the league table prior to the match. After all other matches of the match day had been played, Lazio was five point clear of being relegated, so their season was practically over. Nothing to win, nothing to lose (theoretically, they could still be relegated, but in practice the ...

So goes the storming to norming transition of a blues band. Unfortunately, I am not able to play with BluesJam as often as I did when I attended the Darden School of Business and lived in Charlottesville, so I get only a few cracks at it per year. Most of the members are Darden faculty, thus by day can be found leading students through case method discussions of finance, strategy, ethics and negotiation, while at night moonlighting as Jake and Elwood inspired showmen (and women), belting out soulful standards and a growing collection of original tunes. A handful of exceptionally talented ringers and an odd student or two round ...

I yet remember in the height of the ground operation against the LTTE in 2008, the government decided to stage the first Industrial Exhibition in Jaffna so that the south will begin to engage the North and there by avoid the LTTE instigating the people of Jaffna. There were three of us appointed to champion this project. It was a challenging task given that all logistics had to be done by sea or air because the A9 was not accessible at that time due to heavy fighting. The event attracted 304,000 people from the Jaffna peninsular and 168 companies from Colombo. A Mobitel official was told that a mobile phone at Rs.5000/- ...

Community-based outreach seeks to move libraries beyond their traditional institutional boundaries to improve both access to and effectiveness of health information. The evaluation of such outreach needs to involve the community in assessing the program's process and outcomes. Purpose: Evaluation of community-based library outreach programs benefits from a participatory approach. To explain this premise of the paper, three components of evaluation theory are paired with relevant participatory strategies. Concepts: The first component of evaluation theory is also a standard of program evaluation: use. Evaluation is intended ...

The social science that deals with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services and with the theory and management of economies or economic systems. The foundations of TRADITIONAL economics and all the social sciences has multiple fundamental flaws which includes an intrinsic inconsistency in utility theory. In game theory undefined sums are used to define basic concepts, the characteristic function is ill-defined, and there are other fundamental errors. In measurement theory the models of even the most elementary variables such as length and mass are incorrect, and in decision ...
Prior to get on any policy programme or project, it is important to give adequate consideration to how it will be managed and resourced. Some aspects of the policy making process are very time-consuming, and effective planning is essential. Policy-making is habitually underestimated and misunderstood, yet it is the central role of the city, town, and county legislative bodies. The policies created by our local governments affect everyone in the community in some way. Public policy determines what services will be provided to the residents and the level of those services, what kinds of development will occur in the community, and ...
