The Interplay between Aspirational Talk and Corporate Responsibility

Introduction.-&amp;nbsp;Understanding Aspirational Talk.-&amp;nbsp;Business Ethics Perspective on Responsibility.-&amp;nbsp;Synthesis: Applying Business Ethics to Aspirational Talk.-&amp;nbsp;Conclusion.

Schriftenreihe der HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management

In today's business environments, destructive leadership practices continue to cause significant harm to organizations, employees, and stakeholders. While extensive research has documented these detrimental effects, less attention has been given to proactive approaches for preventing such practices. Based on a systematic exploration of normative perspectives, this book examines kindness as a leadership strength to prevent destructive leadership behaviors. The research conceptualizes kindness through the principle of primum non nocere (first, do no harm), positioning it as a form of self-restraint essential for preventing illegitimate harm. Using the Practical Syllogism framework and the Ethical Compass tool, this book analyzes how kindness serves as a foundational leadership strength that promotes trust, cooperation, and sustainable organizational performance. The findings of this research contribute to the literature of leadership and business ethics by suggesting ways for leaders to manifest kindness and harm prevention in everyday decisions and behaviors, primarily by focusing on the development of moral awareness, willingness, and ability within leadership.

Conceptualizing Kindness in Leadership through (Illegitimate) Harmful Practices

Kindness in Business Leadership: Invest in Self-Restraint

How corporations can address legacies of historical oppression in ways that are good for them and good for others. Increasingly, corporate executives find themselves called upon to atone for their predecessors’ moral transgressions. While many are prepared to address inherited failed product lines or dysfunctional teams, few know how to handle demands that their enterprise address legacies of mass atrocity such as slavery, genocide, or colonialism. In Corporate Reckoning, Sarah Federman provides a corporate atonement model for corporate leaders and employees across industries around the world. When survivors and descendants demand reckoning, many corporate leaders initially shirk the responsibilities that follow from these requests. They may claim that history belongs to the historians, that their company’s activities were legal at the time, or that too much time has passed. If it comes to it, courts will rule in their favor, they reassure themselves. Others avoid these issues simply because they have no idea how to address them. Demands for reckoning ebb and flow, but these histories do not disappear. This book offers a way forward that serves companies and those affected by these historical harms. Taking responsibility for irreparable harm is not easy or comfortable. Despite the dilemmas and difficulties, the only way out is through.

Management und Organisationsberatung

Klar kommunizieren, wirksam handeln 

 Zwischen Tempo und Sorgfalt, Deutlichkeit und Wertschätzung: Führungskräfte stecken täglich in Zwickmühlen - Situationen ohne eindeutig "richtige" Lösung. Das Buch macht diese Dilemmata sichtbar und handhabbar. Seine zentrale These: Wer Dilemmata klar benennen kann, bleibt auch ohne finale Gewissheit handlungsfähig - gegenüber Mitarbeitenden wie Vorgesetzten.
 

 Anhand von 11 typischen Führungsdilemmata aus ihrer Beratungspraxis zeigen die Autor:innen unter anderem, wie man in Konfliktsituationen klar kritisiert und zugleich Beziehung sichert, wie man zwischen situativem Führen und werteorientierter Führung balanciert. Daneben werden Sprach- und Handlungsstrategien für Führungskräfte und Beratende vermittelt, die sich sofort in der täglichen Praxis einsetzen lassen.
 

 Jedes Kapitel bietet Ausgangssituationen, Fallbeispiele, Situationsanalysen, ein Wertequadrat sowie konkrete Formulierungen für schwierige Gespräche. Sie helfen, Erwartungen zu managen, Kommunikation im Führungsalltag zu schärfen und Führungskompetenz wirksam weiterzuentwickeln.

Dilemmata der Führung

The Right Call is for leaders who recognise that ethics is not an afterthought but the architecture of every meaningful decision. As choices become embedded in systems, policies and technologies, the quality of an organisation's ethical reasoning shapes outcomes long before a dilemma becomes visible. This book shows how to strengthen that capability.It begins by translating the four major ethical traditions into decision tools leaders can use in real time. Virtue, duty, consequences and care become practical ways of diagnosing tensions, clarifying what is at stake and understanding how values guide judgement under pressure. The book then examines the organisational infrastructure of decision-making, showing how language, power and informal norms shape what people call the right thing to do. Through diagnostic templates and research-based insights, readers learn to surface assumptions, identify cultural blind spots and create conditions where integrity can scale. The INTEGRITI(TM) model, a disciplined nine-step approach to leading values-based conversations, provides a clear method for turning intent into action, navigating stakeholder tensions and embedding integrity into everyday practice.This is a book for anyone responsible for choices that carry consequences.

In the dynamic sphere of international business, the role of a global manager is more complex and vital than ever. This textbook crucially departs from the typical Western gaze on cross-cultural management, while offering a unique three way viewpoint taking into account the student, theoretical and practitioner perspectives on every issue. Each chapter explores a key area of cross-cultural management, and includes insights from leading practitioners, contemporary case studies and management theory. Beginning with the foundational aspects of culture, Cross-Cultural Management: Strategic Leadership Beyond Borders swiftly moves into practical management strategies for virtual, hybrid and in-country teams, addressing the nuances of culture shift and the dynamics of change management. The author uses an innovative Cultural Acuity framework to connect theory to application and help you develop the interpretive, reflective, and adaptive skills required to operate effectively in complex international environments. You will also gain insights into the intricacies of geopolitics and how global contexts shape managerial decisions, with a focus on strategic planning tailored to diverse cultural landscapes. The author dissects institutional behaviour to illuminate the impacts of varying procedures, laws and regulations; the chapter on collaboration offers a roadmap from basic teamwork to the creation of high-performing, culturally diverse teams. The textbook delves into the art of talent management in a globalized world, exploring best practices for recruitment, onboarding and retention in multicultural environments. Cross-Cultural Management: Strategic Leadership Beyond Borders is not just a collection of theories; it is enriched with case studies and real-world insights, ensuring that you can apply what you learn directly to your managerial role. It is the perfect resource for managers, researchers and students of International Business and Cross-Cultural Management who aim to lead with foresight, embracing both current cross-cultural realities and the future trends that will shape the global business landscape.

Cross-Cultural Management

'A gem of a book, serious and clever yet funny and playful' Financial Times 'Professor of philosophy and a public intellectual for the internet age, Callard shows how Socrates can inform the way we live our lives - from romance to politics' Guardian Socrates has been hiding in plain sight. We call him the father of Western philosophy, but what exactly are his philosophical views? He is famous for his humility, but readers often find him arrogant and condescending. We parrot his claim that 'the unexamined life is not worth living,' yet take no steps to live examined ones. We know that he was tried, convicted, and executed for 'corrupting the youth,' but freely assign Socratic dialogues to today's youths, to introduce them to philosophy. We've lost sight of what made him so dangerous. In Open Socrates, acclaimed philosopher Agnes Callard recovers the radical energy at the centre of Socrates' thought and shows why it is still the way to a good life. Callard draws our attention to Socrates' startling discovery that we don't know how to ask ourselves the most important questions- about how we should live, and how we might change. Before a person even has a chance to reflect, their bodily desires or the forces of social conformity have already answered on their behalf. To ask the most important questions, we need help. Callard argues that the true ambition of the famous "Socratic method" is to reveal what one human being can be to another. You can use another person in many ways-for survival, for pleasure, for comfort- but you are engaging them to the fullest when you call on them to help answer your questions and challenge your answers. Here Callard shows that Socrates' method allows us to make progress in thinking about how to manage romantic love, how to confront one's own death, and how to approach politics. In the process, she gives us nothing less than a new ethics to live by.
