Education, Leadership, & Business Ethics: Essays on the Work of Clarence Walton

by Ronald F. Duska

Education, Leadership, & Business Ethics: Essays on the Work of Clarence Walton Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Education, Leadership and Business Ethics: New Essays on the Work of Clarence Walton includes a history and anecdotes of Clarence Walton's professional and personal life; a discussion of the controversial introduction of ethics into the field of management studies; contributions on a variety of subjects connected to leadership and business ethics from experts in the field; and critical essays reviewing Clarence's most recent work in social criticism. The book gives a history of the rise of the fields of business and society and business ethics, details the events leading to its acceptance in academic circles and gives personal accounts by Clarence Walton, one of the people most responsible for its creation. Intended target groups are students, former academic peers, and friends of Clarence Walton, as well as anyone interested in the history of business ethics or connected to Columbia University of America, or The American College.

Book News Annotation:

Combines writings by Clarence Walton with essays from a May 1997 symposium held at The American College in Bryn Mawr, PA and dedicated to Walton. Focuses on Walton's contributions to the field of business ethics--particularly his belief that a manager should possess four virtues: temperance, fortitude, prudence, and justice. Topics include teaching and public service, business ethics and corporate responsibility, Walton as a case study of a moral manager, and an examination of Walton's appraisal of American culture.
