Description
In today’s discussions of organizational performance and societal impact, the idea of moral capital—the trust and ethical credibility an entity earns through principled behavior—has emerged as a critical yet often underexamined dimension of value creation. As stakeholders increasingly reward responsibility and purpose-driven decision-making, firms and institutions find that moral capital can influence everything from consumer loyalty, strategic partnerships, and long-term resilience. Investigating how moral capital is built, maintained, and converted into tangible and intangible benefits offers a deeper understanding of the mechanisms through which ethics and economic value intersect, ultimately reframing the role of morality in shaping sustainable competitive advantage.
Investigating Moral Capital in Value Creation explores the intersection of moral capital that encompasses the value creation in present economy. It examines value creation at the individual, organizational, and network levels, highlighting how ethical behavior, virtues, and the broader concept of moral capital shape these interconnected processes. Covering topics such as moral capacity, financial literacy, and ethics, this book is an excellent resource for business leaders, academicians, educators, and graduate students.
