Описание: The author of this book asserts that an absence of ethical leadership and unethical practices were the reasons for major global business scandals such as Enron, Satyam, Lehman Brothers, and WorldCom.
In this book, Hoyk and Hersey describe 45 "unethical traps" into which any one of us can fall. These traps, they say, can erupt in any organizational environment. Some of these traps distort our perception of right and wrong—so we actually believe our unethical behavior is right. Many of them are psychological in nature, and if we are not aware of them they are like illusions—webs of deception. In the authors' analysis, these traps significantly contributed to the large-scale corporate disasters we witnessed in recent years.
Hoyk and Hersey take account of these realities and offer a "real-world" method that will predict, preclude, and, if necessary, "get us out of" these traps. Given the increased scrutiny under which all executives and mangers operate today, this book is a 'must read' for anyone who is charged with achieving an organization's mission—whether that mission is increasing profit, serving the common good, or both.
Trust. Loyalty. Friendship. These were once the building blocks of good business relationships. Today, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to know whom to trust. How do we protect ourselves and our business interests from the unethical behaviours of others? Why doesn’t intuition serve as the best guide for detecting unethical strategies?
Concern about falling victim to the tactics of unethical strategies is widespread. The authors connect time-honoured ethical principles to real-world cases and offer the building blocks and counter-strategies you need to fight greed: Knowing the five strategies of greed, and learning how to recognize them. Learning how trust really works, and being able to develop the skill of trusting with discernment. Applying, and being able to communicate, concrete, ethical rules.
Ethics and Hidden Greed will reassure readers that while unethical strategies may have increased in sophistication and grown harder to detect in recent years, there are still only five categories of these behaviours. The authors will demonstrate how to recognize the patterns employed by greedy players and provide tactics for combatting all of them.

Описание: Drawing upon the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad G?t?, a philosophical-spiritual world classic, this professional book highlights the spiritual and moral dimensions of management using an inside-out leadership development approach. It interprets the Bhagavad G?t?’s teachings on the personality types and psychological makeup of managers and employees; self-knowledge and self-mastery; and the leadership concepts of vision, motivation, and empowerment. This book covers topics such as training of the mind, ethical leadership, communication, stress management, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Collectively, the enclosed contributions provide managers with an enhanced outlook on management functions such as leading, planning, organizing, and controlling in today’s organizations, particularly those run by knowledge workers. Management research in the 20th century has mainly focused on the industrial paradigm characterized by a hierarchical structure of authority and responsibility with an individualistic focus on the personality of the manager. However, this traditional paradigm cannot solve many of the problems that confront leaders and mangers today. Recent studies have shown that values traditionally associated with spirituality—such as integrity, honesty, trust, kindness, caring, fairness, and humility—have a demonstrable effect on managerial effectiveness and success. Although traditionally interpreted as a religious-spiritual text, the Bhagavad G?t? teaches these values which can be extrapolated and applied to practical management lessons in today’s corporate boardrooms. Applying the text of the Bhagavad G?t? to the context of management, this book views the manager as an “enlightened sage” who operates from higher stance, guided by self-knowledge and self-mastery. It demonstrates how character is the key ingredient for effective management and leadership. This book is therefore applicable to all managers, from first-line to CEOs, in their management and leadership roles in organizations.
