- You Got No Soul; 2000
- Description
- The paper, "You Got No Soul," by William T. Johnson, delves into the debate of whether a corporation should merely aim for profitability or also possess a 'soul', reflecting a commitment to ethics, community, and internal values. Johnson interviews several CEOs and reports on their answers to his questions as he explores the primary purpose of corporations through various lenses, including business ethics, the impact of leadership, and the balance between shareholder interests and wider societal responsibilities. He concludes that while profitability is crucial, the longevity and success of a company also depend on its ethical foundation and the authenticity of its corporate values.
