Abstract:

Some view business ethics as an oxymoron, some as a subordination of a profession to altruistic ideals, others as an art form. All struggle with the implications of applying business ethics in practice. This paper provides an overview of differing uses of the terms Law, Business Ethics, Entrepreneur, and Manager. It briefly explores whether transformational entrepreneurs can create transformational organizations that maintain those transformational qualities apart from their leader, or whether transformational qualities are individual to a leader at a given point in time. Finally, it draws some conclusions and makes a recommendation based on that analysis.
