“Bereft of ‘moral capital’, managers could prove to be their corporation’s
own ‘suicide sac’.” (The Moral Capital of Leaders : New Horizons in
Leadership Studies, Dr. Alejo Sison 2003)
There is no shortage of recent evidence, some well publicized, to support
this statement. Resolving today’s most pressing questions about
business behaviour has become a priority in today’s corporate
environment. A single-minded pursuit of profitability as the sole purpose
of corporate existence, in the ‘disguise’ of ‘maximising return to
shareholder’,comes under question.
Imposed regulation is not the point and will never be enough - it
is always possible to exploit rules, and rules can never cater
adequately for all situations. Corporate intent cannot be right
unless it is right in terms of the individuals employed. In
deciding how to act in the face of ethical dilemmas,
managers reveal their inner values, test their commitment
to those values, and ultimately shape their characters.
Dr. Alejo Sison’s extensive research has shown that
even with socially and intellectually superior leaders,
organizations cannot flourish without moral strength.
