Why Is Ethics So Important?


"Business is set up in a way that deliberately pushes the boundaries of ethical acceptability and evolves naturally along a path of ethical ambiguity. This does not arise because of intrinsically low integrity of the entrepreneurs/owners, but because of the genuinely ambiguous role of them." (p. 21)
