127Values, Authenticity, and Responsible LeadershipJournal of Business Ethics 98 (S1): 15-23. 2011.The recent financial crisis has prompted questioning of our basic ideas about capitalism and the role of business in society.

The purpose of this study is to open up a line of research in business ethics on the concept of “ authenticity ” as …Read more

37Intra‐stakeholder alliances in plant‐closing decisions: A stakeholder theory approachBusiness Ethics: A European Review 26 (2): 97-111. 2017.This article discusses plant-closing decisions by multinational enterprises applying a stakeholder theory approach.

27Ethics and HRMBusiness and Professional Ethics Journal 30 (3-4): 269-292. 2011.The development of an ethical perspective of HRM that is both employee centered and explicitly normative and, as such, distinct from dominant and criticalperspectives of HRM has progressed in recent years. Reliance on the traditional “threesome” of rights/justice theories, deontology and consequentialism, however, has limited debate to micro-level issues and the search for a “solution.” By understanding the employment relationship as a stakeholder relationship, we open the ethical analysis of HR…Read more
