Taking a unique personalist approach and placing human action at the heart of conducting business morally and ethically, this textbook expertly makes the case that a successful business is an ethical business.

Leading expert Domènec Melé, who has over 30 years’ experience in researching, teaching and consulting in business ethics, argues that businesses and corporations are simply the sum of their people. Business Ethics in Action emphasises the promotion of human excellence and the development of humanistic businesses where people remain central to the organization. Thoroughly revised and updated, this new, 3rd edition addresses contemporary challenges in business ethics shaped by technological advancements, societal evolution and global economic shifts, including artificial intelligence, environmental ethics, sustainability and corporate social responsibility. Coverage of international standards proposed by recognised authorities, including the UN and the International Labour Organization, combined with numerous global case studies and reflective questions per chapter, contribute to a valuable text for students wanting to understand the practicalities of business ethics. A go-to resource for those who are determined to make a genuine, positive impact on the complex business world of today, students can dive into the complex decisions made by some of the world’s most powerful multinationals. The use of well-known examples, including Enron, Volkswagen and Siemens, provides an interesting ‘jumping off’ point for students new to the study of philosophy and ethics, while its accessible language and style makes Business Ethics in Action the ideal companion for undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA students of Business Ethics worldwide.
