Abstract

This chapter explores the moral and ethical dimensions of Indian corporate life. Adopting a historical approach, the links between prevailing models and the differentials in pre-colonial and postcolonial socio-cultural and business scenarios are identified. In particular, the greed-based management model is critically examined. An inspiration-based management model rooted in the indigenous Indian thought and cultural practices, which impress upon a deep sense of morality is advanced. The potential for such an approach is substantiated with the help of instances of contemporary business leaders who developed their enterprises on the same value system. Such cases are deliberated and their implications for current practices are indicated. Interventions are becoming necessary in contemporary business world where malpractices are increasing. Taking a historical route, the chapter also analyses the complexities of current corporate scandals across the world. Finally, the implications for strengthening the moral order in organizational behaviour are highlighted.

企业生活的道德和伦理层面
本章探讨了印度企业生活的道德和伦理层面。采用历史方法,确定了流行模式与殖民前和殖民后社会文化和商业情景差异之间的联系。特别地,对基于贪婪的管理模式进行了严格的审查。提出了一种基于灵感的管理模式,这种模式植根于印度本土的思想和文化实践,给人留下了深刻的道德感。当代商业领袖以同样的价值体系发展自己的企业,这些例子证实了这种方法的潜力。对这些案例进行了审议,并指出了它们对当前做法的影响。在不当行为日益增多的当代商业世界,干预变得越来越必要。从历史的角度出发,本章还分析了当前世界各地公司丑闻的复杂性。最后,强调了加强组织行为中的道德秩序的含义。
