Right Way to Win - Making Business Ethics Work in the Real World

In this pragmatic and accessible business ethics guide, students, entrepreneurs, and professionals learn that business ethics is about so much more than right and wrong. Harvard-educated and McKinsey & Co.-trained business leader Robert Zafft shows that being ethical is not an obstacle to but an essential building block for success.

About the author

Robert Zafft’s introduction to business ethics came during Russia’s wild 1990s, when bankers were getting blown up on Main Street at rush hour. A Harvard Law graduate, Zafft has worked as a McKinsey & Company consultant, global-law-firm partner, private-equity Principal, and public-policy expert. He has advised governments, international organizations, and Fortune Global 500 companies across North America, Europe, and Asia.He teaches business ethics at Olin Business School, Washington University in St. Louis.

Summary

Robert Zafft presents the too-often abstract language of business ethics in straight-forward language, laying out two themes commonly ignored: in the real world, it is often easy to lay out an ethical path but often very difficult to implement and encourage adherence to that path, and reputation is the single most important asset in business.
