A Primer on Critical Thinking and Business Ethics: Critical Thinking in Unpredictable Corporate Business Contexts (Volume 3) encapsulates new developments in Critical Thinking skills for MBA students, in the form of a broad-based cross disciplinary primer in business management, with a special focus on business ethics. Each volume encourages critical thinking as a higher order type of thinking that can be taught, leading to a life of rationality, ethics and empathy, which is urgently required of leaders in a global environment where fraud and corruption are rife.
Volume 3 explores: Critical Thinking to enhance human dignity compromised by global poverty; Critical Thinking applied to current ecological sustainability crises; Critical Thinking applied to environmental ethics such as eco-feminism and animal ethics; Critical Thinking applied to outer space research that could threaten cosmic sustainability; current business management cases for Critical Thinking; and finally, Critical Thinking, mindfulness and happiness for posthuman life and beyond. It is essential reading for all MBA students, as well as for researchers and practitioners.
A must-read for anyone interested in developing graduate-level critical thinking skills and teaching future corporate leaders how to take a more nuanced perspective on the paradigm-shifting challenges they are likely to face when transitioning into their managerial career.
