“In a fresh approach to stakeholder analysis, Bowie and Werhane
articulately and persuasively hone in on the unique ethical
obligations that guide manager-level decision-making. Management
Ethics delineates the competing pressures on managers and provides
them not only with insights but actual processes for ensuring
accountability for their decisions.” Laura Hartman, DePaul
University
“Management Ethics is up-to-date, wide-ranging, and extremely
well-informed. Written from a Kantian stakeholder perspective, it
presents an excellent account of the fundamentals of management
ethics.” George Brenkert, Georgetown University
“Bowie and Werhane combine their diverse experiences and knowledge
to provide an excellent primer in management ethics. They present
the basics of managers’ ethics and corporate social responsibility
in a clear and compelling narrative chock-full of cogent examples
and core concepts.” Thomas Dunfee, Wharton School, University of
Pennsylvania
