Managing ethically with global stakeholders: A present and future challenge
探讨了企业在全球范围内与消费者、员工、政府等利益相关者进行道德管理的挑战,重点分析了管理者在母国与东道国伦理标准之间的抉择,并指出企业社会责任为全球商业伦理提供了框架。
The article discusses aspects of managing ethically with global stakeholders. A firm's major stakeholders include consumers, employees, owners, the community government, competitors, and the natural environment. In the context of global ethics the community is the host nation in which the firm is doing business and the government represents all the separate sovereign nations that serve as hosts to investing multinational corporations. In terms of global ethics decision making the focus is on the extent to which the manager uses home-country ethical standards versus host-country ethical standards in shaping practice. The concept of corporate social responsibility appears to provide a framework for global business ethics.
