520 3 _aThere is a reason why many business schools around the world are starting to teach humanistic management. Humanism, as a philosophy, helps us prioritize human value as important. This, in turn, supports good decision making and the positive interpersonal relationships that are the foundation of good collaborative and respectful decision making. Since all businesses are in the business of solving problems, good problem solving is essential to good business. Humanism has already transformed many other disciplines including psychology, medicine, nursing, and more. Additionally, humanism is foundational to the practice of human resources, without which businesses cannot operate. It is important for business managers to understand the philosophy fully so they can understand how to not only manage people more effectively, but how to operate their businesses in a way that helps the communities in which they operate. This book will provide the primer they need to create more effective and ethical businesses.
