  • Moral pragmatism as a bridge between duty, utility, and virtue in managers' ethical decision-making
    Drašček, Matej ; Rejc Buhovac, Adriana ; Mesner-Andolšek, Dana
    The decline of empirical research on ethical decision-making based on ethical theories might imply a tacit consensus has been reached. However, the exclusion of virtue ethics, one of the three main ... normative ethical theories, from this stream of literature calls this potential consensus into question. This article investigates the role of all three normative ethical theoriesdeontology, utilitarianism and virtue ethics in ethical decision-making of corporate executives. It uses virtue ethics as a dependent variable thus studying the interconnectivity of all three normative ethical theories in specifc circumstances. We fnd that managers use diferent ethical theories in diferent circumstances (business vs. private life, formal vs informal ethical leadership, etc.). A predictive model of ethical decision-making, however, cannot be established. We also fnd that only a limited number of variables infuence the choice of ethical theory, which leans business ethics towards postmodern management paradigm. We suggest that moral pragmatism could provide the answer to ethical decision-making.
