How do you lead the launch of a product you know will be
extremely controversial?What should you do if a single parent on
your staff is falling behind in his or her work?How should you
respond if you are offered an opportunity at work solely because of
your race or gender?This is a book about work choices and life
choices, and the critical points-or defining moments-at which the
two become one. A refreshing antidote to traditional feel-good,
inspirational business ethics, it examines the right-versus-right
conflicts that every business manager faces and presents an
unorthodox yet practical way for you to think about and resolve
them. When making hard professional decisions, managers often use
personal values as a touchstone. Badaracco asserts, however, that
resolving such dilemmas is not as simple as the "do the right
thing" school of ethics would have you believe. Defining Moments
reveals an alternative approach that will help you tackle the more
complex and troubling question of what to do when doing the right
thing requires doing something else wrong, or leaving another right
thing undone.Drawing on philosophy, literature, and three case
studies that reveal the increasing complexity today''s managers face
as their careers advance, Defining Moments provides tangible
examples, actionable steps, and a flexible framework that you can
use to make the choices that will shape not only your career, but
your character.Compelling, readable, and absent of ethical jargon,
this book gets to the core of what makes being a manager so
difficult. For new and seasoned managers alike, Defining Moments
explores what it means-and whether it''s even possible-to be a
successful manager and a thoughtful, responsible human being.
