| | | Description |
Hartman/DesJardins Business Ethics is designed to prepare the student to apply an ethical decision-making model, not only in this ethics course but throughout her or his business discipline. This model teaches students ethical skills, vocabulary, and tools to apply in everyday business decisions and throughout their business courses. The authors speak in a sophisticated yet accessible manner while teaching the fundamentals of business ethics. Hartman’s professional background in law and her teaching experience in business curriculum, combined with DesJardins’ background in philosophy results in a broad language, ideal for this approach and market. The authors’ goal is to engage the student by focusing on cases and business scenarios that students already find interesting. Students are then asked to look at the issues from an ethical perspective. Additionally, its focus on AACSB requirements makes it a comprehensive business ethics text for business school courses.

Broad, sophisticated language that results in an accessible, manageable approach to teaching and learning the fundamentals of business ethics
Demonstrates how ethics plays into each business area, from marketing to corporate governance to impact on environment. It teaches students relevant theory, as well as the decision-making process for applying what they learn to the real world.
Decision Points is a pedagogical feature that reinforces the AACSB focus on demonstrating student learning. This feature teaches ethics as a method for leadership decision making in everyday business decisions by presenting real-life business situations and encouraging students to make the call. Each chapter opens with a decision point that is then resolved at the end of the chapter. Decision points are also sprinkled throughout each chapter as a way to help refine students’ critical thinking skills.
Reality Checks highlight real-life situations of business applications. They are examples of how these particular processes are applied in a timely – straight from the headlines – business situation.
Readings and scenarios are often drawn from current headlines, are relevant to students’ experiences and are chosen to offer a compelling additional perspective to the business environment.
Varied end-of-chapter problems address a variety of teaching and learning styles through web problems, challenging scenarios, projects and short answer questions.
