Abstract: | This paper examines ethics in organizations in relation to the subjectivity of managers. Drawing on the work of Michel Foucault we seek to theorize ethics in terms of the meaning of being a manager
who is an active ethical subject. Such a manager is so in relation to the organizational structures and norms that govern
the conduct of ethics. Our approach locates ethics in the relation between individual morality and organizationally prescribed
principles assumed to guide personal action. In this way we see ethics as a practice that is powerfully intertwined in an
individual’s freedom to make choices about what to do and who to be, and the organizational context in which those choices
are situated, framed and governed. |
