The Ethics of Management

The theme of The Ethics of Management, Fifth Edition, 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 by LaRue Hosmer 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 point of view to others in order to jointly serve their companies, protect their careers, and improve their societies.

Very basic/foundational book on business ethics. Good for an introduction to the topic.

The book was used in my Liberty University "Business Ethics" course. I really, really, did not like how this book was organized, or how it presented the material. The book read more like a research paper than a textbook for conveying concepts to students.

Repetitious. Could really have only been 1 solid chapter with no repeats on info. Case readings make up the bulk of this book.
