Reviews
''Love all, trust a few', said Shakespeare. The idea of trust, invoked often in personal relations, is also a powerful force in business relations, as Public Trust in Business with a stellar cast of authors confirms.' Thomas Donaldson, Mark O. Winkelman Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics, Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania 'Last decade's financial crisis and Great Recession deeply shook the public's trust in business, prompting corporate leaders to re-examine how their companies can sustain and, when necessary, restore their credibility with the public. Public Trust in Business provides an excellent examination of these critical issues, offering valuable insights on the economy, corporate governance and the public's view of business.' John Engler, President of the Business Roundtable 'Business has enormous potential to help solve the world's toughest problems. The relationships that companies have with stakeholders, including the public, can maximize or limit their capacity for positive social impact and financial success. Trust is absolutely critical for achieving these kinds of results. This book provides important insights for business leaders seeking to meet this challenge.' R.
