This is an excellent introduction to the topic of business ethics.
Together the three segments of this interview provide an excellent presentation of what business is and isn’t, and elucidates some guiding philosophic concepts and principles for consideration and further study to guide business success.
There’s a good integration of the theoretical with the practical, in a topic that is too often misunderstood and purposefully misrepresented.
