Book excerpt: Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensethik, Wirtschaftsethik, Note: 1,1, Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg Heidenheim, früher: Berufsakademie Heidenheim, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Das Interesse der Gesellschaft an den Wirkungen unternehmerischen Handelns steigt. Beispiele wie Shell (Brent Spar), Nike (Arbeitsbedingungen bei den Lieferanten), Telekom (Gehaltserhöhung der Vorstände), Mannesmann (Abfindung von Topmanagern) oder Enron (Bilanzierungstricks) zeigen, dass in der Öffentlichkeit unternehmerische Handlungen zunehmend kritisch reflektiert werden.1 Zwar verdanken die traditionellen Wirtschaftsordnungen der westlichen Industrieländer ihre Legitimation dem hohen materiellen Leistungsstandard und der allgemeinen Prosperität, die sie erzeugt haben, doch findet die ausschließende Konzentrierung auf strategische Rationalität und Nutzenmaximierung keine Rechtfertigung mehr.2 Es reicht nicht mehr aus, das Jahresergebnis zu erhöhen und für einen steigenden Aktienkurs zu sorgen, weil erwartet wird, dass der Gewinn auf verantwortbare Weise entsteht. „Nur das Gleichgewicht von Wirtschaft, Umwelt und Gesellschaft gewährleistet die Stabilität, die für unseren Erfolg ausschlaggebend ist. Das gilt für unsere unternehmensinternen Abläufe und Prozesse im gleichen Maße wie für unsere Beziehungen zu anderen gesellschaftlichen Akteuren.“ 3 Es stellt sich also nicht mehr die Frage, ob Unternehmen eine gesellschaftliche Rolle ausüben, sondern wie sie die unterschiedlichen Vorstellungen seitens der Politik, der Kunden, der Lieferanten, der Aktionäre und auch der Mitarbeiter in ihre alltäglichen Entscheidungsprozesse integrieren können. Durch welche Maßnahmen und Prozesse kann im alltäglichen Handeln eine Synthese aus ökonomischen Anforderungen und ethischen Forderungen hergestellt werden? In den USA liefert die Business- Ethics- Bewegung hierzu bereits Vorschläge und praktische Modelle zur Umsetzung von verantwortlichem Handeln im unternehmerischen Alltag, während empirische Studien in Deutschland zeigen, dass beim Thema Unternehmensethik noch sehr viel Unsicherheit herrscht: „Es muss fast erschrecken, wie einseitig Unternehmensethik mit Umweltschutz- und zwar als technisches Problem- gleichgesetzt wird, und wie selten beispielsweise die Arbeitsplatzfrage als spezifisch unternehmensethisches Problem eingeschätzt wird“.

Book excerpt: Wie kann die Unternehmensethik als Management der Verantwortung praktisch umgesetzt werden? Eine stärkere Orientierung der Unternehmens-führung am Leitbild einer vernünftigen, lebensdienlichen Wirtschaft wird nicht nur von Politikern und kritischen Bürgern, sondern ebenso von Wirtschafts-praktikern und -wissenschaftlern gefordert. Die Autorin erörtert zunächst die philosophischen Grundlagen der Ethik und klärt dann das Verhältnis von Ethik und Ökonomik. Im Vordergrund steht die Institutionalisierung der Ethik auf der Ebene des einzelnen Unternehmens. Zugleich wird aber auch deutlich, welche Rolle die Individualmoral der Wirtschaftsakteure sowie die Rahmenordnung für die Unternehmensethik spielen. Als Service beinhaltet das Buch eine detaillierte Liste von Initiativen und Institutionen mit Internetadressen. Darüber stellt die Autorin ein umfangreiches Online-Glossar bereit. Dieser Titel ist nicht als Dozenten-Freiexemplar erhältlich.

Book excerpt: Wissenschaftlicher Aufsatz aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensethik, Wirtschaftsethik, 13 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die verstärkte Wahrnehmung negativer Effekte wirtschaftlichen Handelns im unternehmerischen und globalen Bereich, die Debatten um ethische Grundlagen der Globalisierung sowie die Diskussionen um die soziale Verantwortung von Unternehmen in der Welt haben die Betriebe zunehmend unter Druck gesetzt, ethische Grundprinzipien für eine erfolgreiche Unternehmensführung zu entwickeln und auch umzusetzen. In diesem Zusammenhang steht auch die Frage, ob es Teil der Unternehmensaufgaben ist, soziale Verantwortung gegenüber Mitarbeitern und der Gesellschaft zu übernehmen, die im Widerspruch zu den wirtschaftlichen Leistungen stehen oder über diese hinausgehen. Ansatzpunkte dieser Arbeit ist dabei die analytische Betrachtung der unterschiedlichen Positionen zu den Fragen der Unternehmensethik und den daraus resultierenden unternehmensethischen Konzeptionen. In der Arbeit soll auch eine Definition von der Implementierung der Ethik in das Management entwickelt werden, die über die klassische Definition der Managementaufgaben hinausgehen muss. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit soll eine Analyse der Instrumente der Unternehmensethik und deren praktische Umsetzung zum Inhalt haben, um zu klären, ob sich Aspekte der ethischen Betrachtung der Wirtschaft in der unternehmensstrategischen Ausrichtung z.B. in der Planung, Kontrolle oder der Unternehmensphilosophie wieder finden. Im Rahmen der Arbeit sollen weitere mögliche Einflussfaktoren und Spannungsfelder zwischen der Unternehmensführung und der Umsetzung von unternehmensethischen Maßnahmen identifiziert werden.

Book excerpt: Die Wahrnehmung gesellschaftlicher Verantwortung durch Unternehmen wandelt sich mehr und mehr von einer optionalen zu einer verbindlichen Aufgabe. Dies gilt auch vor dem Hintergrund der seit 2017 geltenden CSR-Berichterstattungspflicht vornehmlich für die großen "Platzhirsche". Für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen bildet die Beschäftigung mit dieser Thematik nach wie vor die Ausnahme, obwohl diese Berichtspflicht über die Wertschöpfungskette zukünftig verstärkt auch an KMU weitergegeben wird. Der vorliegende Band stellt Konzepte, Instrumente und Verfahren der Integration unternehmerischer Verantwortung auf dem Fundament wirtschafts- und unternehmensethischer Ansätze dar. Für die 2. Auflage wurden verhaltensethische und verhaltensökonomische Aspekte moralischer Handlungen einerseits und die klimapolitischen Vorgaben, die neuen CSR-Berichterstattungspflichten sowie die Lieferkettenverantwortung andererseits eingearbeitet.

This book was released on 2022-06-13 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this textbook we examine the extent to which moral values play a role as productive forces for companies and the economy as a whole, and explores the effect of ethical and unethical behavior at both levels. We show how ethics improves productivity, and provide specific ethics tools for practical application for both students and managers. Stemming from an overall interdisciplinary approach, this textbook fills a gap in the literature on ethics in business. Following a textbook structure, we first derive knowledge from scientific studies that are relevant for students, and then summarize the results. We explain ethical assessment approaches, and then provide an ethical assessment of economic behavior using case studies. Roleplaying and games are used to explain the behavior of people in relation to ethics. The 2nd edition has been completely revised and expanded to include new findings from the behavioral sciences (psychology, social psychology, sociology and behavioral economics). In particular, the research on emotions, motivation and group behavior have given rise to many new impulses in business ethics. In addition, new case studies and new chapters were included, like Politics and Morality, Theories of Justice, Global Ethics, and Institutions as Solutions to Specific Game Situations (game theory). This book is important for students and researchers as well as policymakers and business executives due to its focus on applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection contains twenty-one thought-provoking essays on the controversies surrounding the moral and legal distinctions between euthanasia and "letting die." Since public awareness of this issue has increased this second edition includes nine entirely new essays which bring the treatment of the subject up-to-date. The urgency of this issue can be gauged in recent developments such as the legalization of physician-assisted suicide in the Netherlands, "how-to" manuals topping the bestseller charts in the United States, and the many headlines devoted to Dr. Jack Kevorkian, who has assisted dozens of patients to die. The essays address the range of questions involved in this issue pertaining especially to the fields of medical ethics, public policymaking, and social philosophy. The discussions consider the decisions facing medical and public policymakers, how those decisions will affect the elderly and terminally ill, and the medical and legal ramifications for patients in a permanently vegetative state, as well as issues of parent/infant rights. The book is divided into two sections. The first, "Euthanasia and the Termination of Life-Prolonging Treatment" includes an examination of the 1976 Karen Quinlan Supreme Court decision and selections from the 1990 Supreme Court decision in the case of Nancy Cruzan. Featured are articles by law professor George Fletcher and philosophers Michael Tooley, James Rachels, and Bonnie Steinbock, with new articles by Rachels, and Thomas Sullivan. The second section, "Philosophical Considerations," probes more deeply into the theoretical issues raised by the killing/letting die controversy, illustrating exceptionally well the dispute between two rival theories of ethics, consequentialism and deontology. It also includes a corpus of the standard thought on the debate by Jonathan Bennet, Daniel Dinello, Jeffrie Murphy, John Harris, Philipa Foot, Richard Trammell, and N. Ann Davis, and adds articles new to this edition by Bennett, Foot, Warren Quinn, Jeff McMahan, and Judith Lichtenberg.

Book excerpt: In the fifteen years since the Second Vatican Council, no aspect of theology has undergone such thorough scrutiny as that of moral theology. Furthermore, the discussions have not been the exclusive concern of churchmen. Theologians have entered into dialogue with everyone who is in any way preoccupied with the need to improve social order. Thus the insights of all the human and social sciences have been brought to bear in the task of reassessment and restructuring. This book presents a comprehensive scheme of moral theology which is relevant to the moral and intellectual climate of the latter decades of the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume highlights key moments and movements in this "competence turn" in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), and explores the different ways in which competences have been conceptualized and implemented. By marshaling a dialogue between chapters and sections, the book provides a coherent whole that will become a key source on ESD competences. The contributors develop a conceptual map against which to chart existing (and future) ESD competence frameworks, offer new critical case studies that explore the implementation of educator competences in ESD at different structural levels in different European contexts, explore the link between pedagogy and educator competence through hitherto unpublished case studies based on current practices across Europe, and consider the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on ESD and educator competence. The book comprises 23 chapters divided into four sections, with an introduction and concluding chapter. Section One introduces concepts and models related to ESD competences, while the following two sections focus on implementation and pedagogy. In light of the foregoing material, the shorter Section Four is both reflective and forward looking. The primary audience for this book will be academics and students working in the fields of Education, Sustainability Science and related disciplines.

Book excerpt: This volume explores the ethical questions that arise in the development, creation and use of robots that are capable of semiautonomous or autonomous decision making and human-like action. It examines how ethical and moral theories can and must be applied to address the complex and critical issues of the application of these intelligent robots in society. Coverage first presents fundamental concepts and provides a general overview of ethics, artificial intelligence and robotics. Next, the book studies all principal ethical applications of robots, namely medical, assistive, socialized and war roboethics. It looks at such issues as robotic surgery, children-robot and elderly-robot therapeutical/social interactions and the use of robots, especially autonomous lethal ones, in warfare. In addition, a chapter also considers Japanese roboethics as well as key intercultural and robot legislation issues. Overall, readers are provided with a thorough investigation into the moral responsibility (if any) of autonomous robots when doing harm. This volume will serve as an ideal educational source in engineering and robotics courses as well as an introductory reference for researchers in the field.

Book excerpt: Become a Digital Master—No Matter What Business You’re In If you think the phrase “going digital” is only relevant for industries like tech, media, and entertainment—think again. In fact, mobile, analytics, social media, sensors, and cloud computing have already fundamentally changed the entire business landscape as we know it—including your industry. The problem is that most accounts of digital in business focus on Silicon Valley stars and tech start-ups. But what about the other 90-plus percent of the economy? In Leading Digital, authors George Westerman, Didier Bonnet, and Andrew McAfee highlight how large companies in traditional industries—from finance to manufacturing to pharmaceuticals—are using digital to gain strategic advantage. They illuminate the principles and practices that lead to successful digital transformation. Based on a study of more than four hundred global firms, including Asian Paints, Burberry, Caesars Entertainment, Codelco, Lloyds Banking Group, Nike, and Pernod Ricard, the book shows what it takes to become a Digital Master. It explains successful transformation in a clear, two-part framework: where to invest in digital capabilities, and how to lead the transformation. Within these parts, you’ll learn: • How to engage better with your customers • How to digitally enhance operations • How to create a digital vision • How to govern your digital activities The book also includes an extensive step-by-step transformation playbook for leaders to follow. Leading Digital is the must-have guide to help your organization survive and thrive in the new, digitally powered, global economy.

Book excerpt: The family business has a far reaching influence on economies throughout the world. No other type of business has driven economic development in the same way and today, in almost all countries, family businesses including such giants as Ford, Levi Strauss, L'Oréal and Ferrero are the source of more than half of the Gross National Product (GNP) and employment. As a result of their prominence the question of how they are governed, controlled and accounted for is crucial not only for the owning families, but also for the societies in which these companies operate. The Family Business considers: · How to define a family-controlled business and the significance of this form of privately-held enterprise. · Governance systems in the context of the family business. · How a board of outsiders can add value to the typical family business. · How to handle the classical tensions between family and board and between family and management on the other. · How to gain effective and efficient control at the highest level. The answer to these questions and others is given by providing a large number of examples of internationally active family businesses and from the authors teaching and research into this area. Sustainability is the key concern to the family business and this book breaks new ground in showing how they can successfully live on to the next generation.
