Business Ethics: Facing Up to the Issues (Electronic book text)

This book builds on a survey done by London Business School with Arthur Andersen and work done by other organisations, such as the Centre for Tomorrow's Company, the Institute of Directors and the Global Ethics Trust. It reviews the issues and provides a practical framework for businesses to ensure that their ethics meet standards that enhance their reputation and performance. The book compares the different approaches taken on both sides of the Atlantic - the US emphasis on regulation and compliance and the UK preference for changing corporate values - and draws heavily on the experiences of a wide range of companies and business managers.
