Business Ethik 3.0: Die neue integrale Ethik aus der Sicht eines CEOs
by Erhard Meyer-GalowProf. Dr. Erhard Meyer-Galow will mit seiner integralen Business Ethik 3.0 zu einem dringend nötigen Umdenken und Handeln anregen.

Ursache dieser Fehlverhaltensweisen ist hauptsächlich die Angst vor dem Versagen. Daraus resultiert ein Mangel an Achtsamkeit, Mitgefühl, Empathie, Kongruenz und Zuverlässigkeit.Ein erfahrener CEO spricht Klartext über den Mangel an Moral in unserer Wirtschaft und legt ein Konzept für eine neue tragfähige Ethik vor, das über alle bisherigen Versuche hinausgeht. Die International Humanistic Management Association hat Prof. Dr. Erhard Meyer-Galow für sein Buch Business Ethics 3.0-The New Integral Ethics from the Perspective of a CEO als Finalist des Book Awards 2018 (Practice) ausgezeichnet.
