BILLY BUDD A BARNARDIAN APPROACH TO A MORALLY RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION
Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Organizations, as conceived by Chester Barnard, enable its employees to be morally responsible, because such organizations are essentially dependent on the cooperation of free, moral, and competent individuals. Our analysis of Melville’s Billy Budd illustrates how a Barnardian organization might have prevented the unjust execution of Billy and in the process enhanced organizational effectiveness and efficiency.
