ISBN: 9780820457109 / Angielski / Twarda / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In his discussion of ethical business leadership, Sherwin Klein strikes a balance between an overly idealistic and theoretical view of this concept and a narrowly practical and realistic one. Moreover, he argues that Aristotelian virtue ethics provides business...
