To a large extent, the skills and decisions of leaders influence a number of positive outcomes for the business; from increased sales, to customer satisfaction, employee commitment/loyalty, as well as the growth, survival and further expansion of the business.

Business is essential to the economy of society. A single business entity can stand for and serve one or many purposes within the society. It can assume many roles with attendant expectations to each. In its plainest form, a firm or business can see itself as a service provider or maker of great products existing to create value for its shareholders, but to its community of stakeholders the view of its role in society can be a complex maze of interests and expectations that business leaders and managers need to understand to operate successfully. Join us as we examine the need for having a system to identify and interpret the expectations associated with each view. Join in via this link: https://bit.ly/HMNKnowledgecafe2.

Business organisations are separate from the individual(s) who set up the business. Whilst this is true, it is important the business reflects the owner’s personal ethos and has a strong identity that employees and customers can identify with. Business identity with a strong leaning towards ethics plays an important role in positive stakeholders’ perception of the business and ultimately determines its success or otherwise. The Humanistic Management Network (HMN) knowledge café will dwell on how to go about developing a strong ethical identity, harnessing its benefits, and overcoming possible challenges.
