A Practical Guide to Ethics: Living and Leading with Integrity by Manning, Rita, Stroud, Scott R. (2007) Paperback

by Scott R. Stroud

This essential new text provides a practical guide to making ethical decisions, putting them into practice, and communicating them effectively to others. Emphasizing personal choice in the study of ethics, the authors take the reader on a journey of self-discovery rather than a mere academic survey of the field of ethics. The book helps readers develop their skills in ethical decision-making and put those decisions into effective practice. Its unique focus on leadership, especially the moral dimensions of leadership, teaches students to understand and communicate their own beliefs as a step to building coalitions with those who may hold different views. It is also distinctive in combining ethical theory with both multicultural ethics (Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, feminism) and a practical orientation to moral decision-making and leadership.

This was assigned for reading in an ethics class I took at FHSU Virtual College. I kept the book after class was done because it is ... practical!

I needed this for school, but honestly the stories and testimonies were really good and made me think.
