The Philospohy of business. Marriage, religion, communities, even nation states are eroding. Philosophers have long pondered the great questions. I think much can be learned from framing these questions in a business, or more specifically, knowledge management perspective. Creating a compelling purpose for employees and providing direction and vision is extremely important to successful companies.
People work eighty-hour weeks when they feel they are part of something big.
From a knowledge management perspective maybe it is worth considering important philosophical questions. What responsibilities do businesses have to society at large. The ideal corporation. I believe that the vast majority of people never really seriously contemplate the issues that some great minds have devoted their lives to. These are important questions.
