Taft W: Ethics in Service

Ethics in Service

De Gruyter Transformative Thinking and Practice of Leadership and Its Development

Leadership can be lonely, difficult and sometimes downright shitty. But it matters. In ways large and small, the decisions leaders make can determine the quality of other people’s lives — sometimes thousands of them.But how does one lead ethically when every available choice carries moral risk? In organisations, public life and crisis settings, leaders are often forced to act under pressure, with incomplete information, competing duties and consequences they cannot fully control.Ethical Leadership&nbsp;examines how responsible decisions can be made in precisely these circumstances. Drawing on philosophy, social psychology, history, politics, humanitarian action and organisational practice, Aidan McQuade explores what happens when law, institutional interest and conscience pull in different directions. Rather than offering a checklist of abstract principles, the book uses real-world cases and practical reflection to show how ethical judgement is formed, tested and sometimes compromised.The book’s central argument is that ethical leadership depends not on moral certainty but on disciplined judgement: recognising power and questioning it, confronting uncomfortable trade-offs, listening seriously to those affected, and accepting responsibility for the consequences of both action and inaction.Accessible to students, practitioners and experienced leaders alike,&nbsp;Ethical Leadership offers a practical framework for anyone who must make difficult decisions without losing sight of human dignity, justice and accountability.

Moral decision-making under pressure

Ethical Leadership

'My view is that the future belongs to the minority of businesses that follow this advice.' Rory Sutherland, Vice Chairman, Ogilvy Group As fears of agentic obsolescence abound, organizations are struggling to implement AI in ways that enhance rather than replace human work. This unique book introduces a full-stack approach that balances technological capability with human values, ethics and practical applications. AI at Work provides a framework that moves beyond scattered AI experiments toward a coherent strategy that will run throughout your entire company. Rather than focusing on technical capabilities or dystopian warnings, it utilizes a full-stack approach to harness AI's benefits while preserving what matters most - a firm's people, its values and its unique organizational identity. The global AI market is projected to reach $1.8 trillion by 2030, with organizations across sectors racing to implement AI solutions. However, whilst 83% of executives report that AI is a top priority for their organization, only 23% have a comprehensive implementation strategy. This book fills a critical gap between theoretical AI books and technical implementation guides by offering: · A practical framework applicable across industries; · Equal emphasis on technological capability, ethical considerations and real-world applications; · A human-centred approach that addresses concerns about AI replacing workers; and · Case studies and examples from diverse sectors.

Sustainable Development Goals Series

<div>This is a book about the human experience of conducting global health research, linked to operational responses to the control and prevention of diseases worldwide. Rather than a manual or how-to guide, we propose a roadmap and vision of equitable, sustainable, and impactful partnerships shared through a rich interweaving of voices: North and South, academics and community practitioners, senior mentors and trainees, multiple generations, and multiple disciplines. We focus on the stories that need to be told, the successes and the failures, and visions for a healthier and more compassionate future for humanity.</div><div>
</div><div>This book was written by more than 90 authors from 26 countries, bringing diverse perspectives on global health partnerships' past, present, and future. Although many of the chapters use examples related to infectious diseases, the ideas in this book are relevant to the broader field of global health research and practice.</div><div>
</div><div>This book is organized into three sections, broadly related to foundational concepts, present experiences (case studies), and future visions. The first section focuses on the historical colonial legacy of global health and the foundations needed for equitable partnerships, introducing key themes explored throughout the book. These include concepts related to decolonization, ethics, gender, systems approaches and transdisciplinary science, Planetary Health, One Health, team science, and communication. The book's second section draws on case studies of global health partnerships to understand where we are today in global health. Authors share their experiences responding to global health threats, including disease outbreaks, refugee health, stigma, and sexually transmitted diseases, and post-disaster community recovery. The book's third section articulates a new vision for global health partnerships to co-create a more peaceful, equitable, and loving world. This vision is urgently needed to address the challenges emerging in the context of global climate change, the COVID-19 pandemic, and other human threats. </div><div>

Critical Reflections and Visions of Equity at the Research-Practice Interface

Transforming Global Health Partnerships

Good people wear the badge. But human nature still comes with it.
Society gives extraordinary authority to ordinary human beings. Fall of Duty: How Good Cops Go Bad examines what happens when the normal forces of human nature-bias, pride, conformity, rationalization, loyalty, fear, anger, and self-deception-collide with the extraordinary responsibilities of policing.
Drawing from ancient wisdom, history, modern psychology, real-world cases, and the realities of law enforcement, Adam Tippetts explores a difficult truth: unethical behavior is not limited to unethical people. Good officers with honorable intentions can drift, justify, conform, and make decisions they once believed they never would.
Fall of Duty moves beyond traditional ethics training and simple rules about right and wrong. It asks officers to understand the person behind the badge, recognize the forces that can compromise integrity, and develop the self-awareness necessary to resist them.
Ancient wisdom. Modern psychology. Deeper ethics.

Fall Of Duty

Some Business Books Teach You How to Win. This One Teaches You What Winning Actually Means. 

Bill Barrett's father grew up poor in the Bronx, worked as a janitor, and spent eight years earning his college degree while supporting a family. He pulled all-nighters not because he loved the grind, but because he loved the people counting on him. And when he passed away, a retired client drove three and a half hours to the funeral, not out of obligation, but because that relationship had meant something real.

That's what authentic success looks like. Not the flashy kind that fades with the next market shift, but the enduring kind built on hard work, genuine care, and treating people like people, not transactions. It's the kind of legacy that outlasts any bottom line.

You'll discover:The transformative power of genuine human connection, where caring deeply about others creates success that extends far beyond the bottom line
Why playing the long game and developing an abundance mindset separate those who merely survive from those who thrive and leave lasting legacies
The art of being fully present and sharing your time generously, creating the kind of impact that has people driving three hours to honor you decades later



A moving tribute to a father's wisdom and a son's journey to carry it forward, Authentic reveals the timeless principles that build not just successful careers, but lives rich with meaning, relationships that endure, and legacies worth leaving.

An Old-School Approach to Building a Full Life, a Successful Business, and Real Relationships

Authentic

THE LEADER YOU BECOME

This book explores human vulnerability through the lens of natural law theory. Beginning with a detailed examination of natural law ethics, centred upon the virtues (Part One), it sets out the relationship between natural law and human vulnerability. To be human is to be vulnerable; but vulnerability must itself be understood by reference to the human goods that are the central concern of natural law ethics. Such goods lie at the heart of what it means to lead a flourishing life, but they are in no way certain: goods such as health, education, the family can all be perverted or taken away by human agency or the vicissitudes of life. Part Two poses the problem of how human beings and government can build resilience in the face of these vulnerabilities. Its main contention is that the central aims of vulnerability theory, including that of state responsiveness, are pre-figured in the social teachings of the Catholic Church. These teachings provide a compelling basis for the demand that the state be more responsive to social scourges such as poverty, crime, debt and dependency. Vulnerability theorists will benefit from a new perspective on the problems that are central to their analysis; natural law theorists will profit by an enrichment and extension of their central concerns.

Natural Law, Ethics and Human Vulnerability

Political Corruption and Governance

This book explores how public sector organisations at both national and local levels of Swedish government work to promote integrity and fight ethics violations.Integrity and ethical conduct are key to maintaining citizens' trust in public organisations. Whilst various performance indicators suggest that public governance works well and corruption is low, citizens still perceive corruption and other ethics violations to be pertinent problems. In such contexts, ethics management plays an important role for upholding integrity. This book examines these issues in the context of Sweden. It analyses how ethics management is used in public sector organisations, offers new insights on staff and stakeholder inclusion in public sector ethics management, and presents practical solutions based on theoretically informed in-depth empirical research.&nbsp;It will appeal to students and scholars of public policy, public administration and governance, as well as practiitoners.&nbsp;Staffan Andersson
 is Associate Professor in Political Science at Linnaeus University, Sweden. His research interests include political and administrative ethics, corruption and anti-corruption.&nbsp;
 Helena Ekelund
 is Senior Lecturer in Political Science at Linnaeus University, Sweden. Her research interests include agency governance at national and EU levels.

This book explores how public sector organisations work to promote integrity and fight ethics violations. Integrity and ethical conduct are key to maintaining public confidence in these organisations. Many established and wealthy democracies face a paradoxical situation. While various performance indicators suggest that public governance works comparatively well and with relatively low corruption levels, citizens still perceive corruption and other ethics violations to be pertinent problems. In such contexts, ethics management plays an important role for upholding integrity. This book examines these issues in the context of Sweden, at both national and local levels of government. It analyses ethics management strategies in public sector organisations and the bodies that support their ethics work, offers new insights on staff and stakeholder inclusion, and presents practical solutions based on theoretically informed in-depth empirical research.It will appeal to students and scholars of public policy, public administration and governance, as well as practitioners.

Public Sector Ethics in Practice

Your growth is real. So is the pressure to bend on hiring, honesty, and culture to keep it. This book is about staying built to bend without ever quietly breaking.

Every founder starts with a quiet promise: build this the right way. Built to Bend is about what actually happens to that promise between the founding and everything after - not in one dramatic moment, but in a series of specific, survivable-seeming decisions: the hire you almost regret, the investor pitch that rewards a little shading of the truth, the sales call that tests your spine, the layoff you didn't see coming, the star performer whose behavior is quietly poisoning the team.

Written by a founder-advisor who has sat across the table for exactly these moments, this book skips the abstract "stay true to your values" advice and gives you something more useful: a clear-eyed account of what compromise actually looks like when it's dressed up as necessity, and a concrete way to choose differently, before you're standing in the room under pressure with no time to think.

What's inside:

- Why the first hire you're tempted to overlook a red flag on almost never turns out to be worth it
- The specific spectrum between honest framing and quiet deception in a fundraising pitch - and a test for knowing which side of the line you're on
- How to say no to a customer's unrealistic ask without losing the deal or your integrity
- Building a real values filter for hiring, instead of a poster on the wall
- Handling layoffs, star-performer problems, and board updates with honesty that actually builds trust
- Why reputation is the most durable, compounding asset your company has - and the fastest one to lose
- A founder's guide to staying honest all the way through an exit

BUILT TO BEND

Das moderne Recht wirft viele grundsätzliche Fragen auf: Ist Recht mit Gerechtigkeit notwendig verbunden? Was ist überhaupt Recht und was Gerechtigkeit? Wie verhalten sich Recht und Moral zueinander? Warum und unter welchen Bedingungen ist Recht verbindlich?
Diesen und zahlreichen anderen Fragen zu Recht, Ethik und ihrer Bedeutung für Staat und Gesellschaft geht Mahlmann in seinem Lehrbuch anhand von vielen Beispielen nach - von der Folter über die neuen Herausforderungen Künstlicher Intelligenz für das Recht bis hin zu Perspektiven einer internationalen Friedensordnung in einer Epoche neuer Kriege. Dabei schlägt er einen Bogen von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart und entwickelt vor diesem historischen Hintergrund Antworten auf zentrale systematische Fragen der Rechtsphilosophie und Rechtstheorie.
