Virtue ethics provide the substantial benefits of applying human character perspective in conjunction with imperfect-act-oriented perspectives. An interactive symbiosis approach is superior in meeting the complex requirements of applied ethics. Current organizations are underpinned by utilitarian ethics of Modernity. Pure economic motive driven organizations detach themselves from larger societal interest. Rising number of corporate scandals and intraor-ganizational income inequalities are breeding similar trends in society at large. Current organizations base their competitive advantage on resources and capabilities which boils down to economic supremacy at all cost whether it is named I/O or RBV of the firm. This theoretical article posits Ethics-based Trust as the main competency and capability for attaining sustained competitive advantage. It in no way condemns utility view of the firms but treats it as a natural yet secondary outcome of genuine ethicality of the firm. Cultivating an ethical culture in the firm through identifying antecedents, organizational practices, and the outcomes where profitability is an automatic but secondary outcome under the supremacy of ethics is detailed in the multilevel model presented in this article. The main call of this article is to posit ethics and morality over and above short-term profits so that organizations fulfill their trustee role for society through enacting socio-humanistic theories within organizations. A brief analysis of the proposed ethical theory of firm is undertaken in light of the ''schooling'' notion in the contemporary organization theory literature. This article argues that attempting to overcome moral silence in organizations will require management to move beyond a compliance-oriented organizational culture toward a culture based on integrity. Such cultural change is part of good corporate governance that aims to steer an organization to enhance creativity and moral excellence, and thus organizational value. Governance mechanisms can be either formal or informal. Formal codes and other internal formal regulations that emphasize compliance are necessary, although informal mechanisms that are based on relationship-building are more likely to achieve moral excellence. Such a shift can be viewed as a transformative strategy for overcoming the destructive side effects and business risks of the tendency within corporate cultures to remain mute when faced with issues that violate personal or corporate values. Genuine dialogues and appropriate ethical decision-making training can deepen the understanding and create a mindful awareness (of ethical values) and induce trust that embrace both complying with rules and regulations, as well as inciting creative “ethical innovation” with respect to human interaction in multinational companies. Several leadership and ethics scholars suggest that the transformational leadership process is predicated on a divergent set of ethical values compared to transactional leadership. Theoretical accounts declare that deontological ethics should be associated with transformational leadership while transactional leadership is likely related to teleological ethics. However, very little empirical research supports these claims. Furthermore, despite calls for increasing attention as to how leaders influence their followers' perceptions of the importance of ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) for organizational effectiveness, no empirical study to date has assessed the comparative impact of transformational and transactional leadership styles on follower CSR attitudes. Data from 122 organizational leaders and 458 of their followers indicated that leader deontological ethical values (altruism, universal rights, Kantian principles, etc.) were strongly associated with follower ratings of transforma-tional leadership, while leader teleological ethical values (utilitarianism) were related to follower ratings of trans-actional leadership. As predicted, only transformational leadership was associated with follower beliefs in the stakeholder view of CSR. Implications for the study and practice of ethical leadership, future research directions, and management education are discussed. The authors of this paper believe that scholarly work on knowledge management (KM) has largely overlooked ethical considerations. As such, this paper argues for the infusion of ethical considerations into knowledge management (KM) research. Using the lens of the classical ethical theories in philosophy, this paper revisits key areas of KM—knowledge creation, storage and access, transfer, and application—and generates relevant research questions in each of these areas. The paper highlights the importance of examining ethical issues related to KM, and offers an illustrative set of ethically-informed research themes and questions that can potentially be investigated by future studies. It is widely held in the corporate environment that strategic deception is a legitimate strategic tool and means of competition. Organizations rarely pause to identify by-standing stakeholders such as customers and suppliers that could be victims of strategic deception. Why should deceptive strategies be good for organizations yet unacceptable in most peoples‘ private lives? Many CEOs execute deceptive strategies that they would not if they were to apply a personal ethics framework. Beyond the ethical concerns, there are issues regarding the moral conduct of corporations while interacting with employees and other stakeholders, disproportionate use of the commons and pushback against rules and norms that would sustain the environment. While this problem has persisted, with corporate ethics consistently falling short of expectations, business scholars seem to be disconnected from their ethics counterparts. The study proposes a set of universal individual values and an ethical strategi... Abstract: Market liberalisation of legal services is being accompanied by key changes in professional regulation, notably outcome focused regulation, prioritised through risk-assessment and invoking stronger elements of relationship management. These suggest changes in the nature of professionalism. For some at least, market liberalisation in particular threatens to weaken professional ethics. What utilitarianism emphasizes?Utilitarianism is a theory of morality that advocates actions that foster happiness and oppose actions that cause unhappiness. Utilitarianism promotes "the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of people."
What is the difference between virtue ethics and principleVirtue-based and principle-based approaches to ethics are complementary because they focus on different aspects of ethical conduct. Principle-based approaches stress the importance of following moral rules, while the virtue-based approaches emphasize moral character development.

What are principlePrinciple-based decisionmaking is based on a system of ethical concepts and principles that apply across all situations. Under ends-based ethical principles, on the other hand, behavior is based on the intended outcome a person hopes to achieve in a given situation.
