Abstract:

The world synchronizes. Utilitarian thinking has become the globally prevailing doctrine concerning firms' approaches to human resource issues. Corporate morality ideally forms a counterbalance, which effectively mitigates the disadvantageous impacts resulting from companies' mere pursuit of economic interests. This article deduces implications for firms and their employees from current debates in the field of business ethics. First, it challenges corporate culture pragmatists and the unquestioned managerial attempt to shape and create an organization's culture. Second, the article casts doubt on the paradigm of constant organizational change and reveals potential consequences for businesses. Third, it spotlights the significance of employees' perceived meaning at work and clarifies the role of value priorities for endowment with meaning.
