HR fables: Schizophrenia, selling your soul in dystopia, fuck the employees, and sleepless nights
Business Ethics 17 (4):391-404 (2008)
| Abstract | Aesop's fables are used to gather HR fables and these fables are told mainly in the words of the protagonists of these moral stories, HR practitioners. Leaving the moral meaning of the fables for the reader to interpret so the reader can ethically connect with the morality of HR work, the personal narratives of practitioners and their humanity, the fables conclude with a critical commentary by the author, the promotion of a human virtue and HR moral maxim. The article, itself, then ends with an explanation of the research methodology adopted to compile the HR fables. | |||||||||
