When Organizations Become Shipwrecked by Michel Dion

This book offers a philosophical and ethical outlook on the existential (ontic) obstacles that are involved in organizational crises: indecisiveness, withdrawnness, and unsettlement. It emphasizes the ontic basis of all kinds of meaning crises in organizations. These vary from the degeneration of values, representations, and beliefs that cause ethical apathy and indifferentism (a crucial antecedent of a meaning crisis) to the lack of ethical questioning and of ethical consistency. The latter being a very important conditioning factor for the unfolding of a meaning crisis in an organization. Nonetheless, optimal solutions are available for solving meaning crises in a philosophically consistent and ethical way. Academics (and doctoral students) whose field of expertise include the philosophical basis of business ethics, will benefit from reading this book as it provides a philosophical and ethical viewpoint on organizational crises and reveals how values, representations, and beliefs are the main issues in meaning crises.

Michel Dion is an independent scholar who lives in Canada.
