    Innovation Process and Ethics in Technology
    (06/2014) Nathan, Ganesh
    Innovation governance models, dealing in general with organizational structure, innovation process, strategy and leadership, are becoming increasingly important for innovative companies within the changing complexity of innovation ecosystems. Traditionally, governance is related to risk management and corporate governance is concerned with the rules and conduct of management to minimize risks to shareholders. With the increasing importance of ethical concerns and issues of governance in general, and in particular with technological innovations for responsible innovation (Owen et al., 2013), this paper focuses on the need for technological innovation processes to embed an ethical decision-making framework with a view to responsible innovation governance.

    Multi-stakeholder Deliberation for (Global) Justice: An Approach from Modern Civic Republicanism
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014) Nathan, Ganesh; Schepers, Stefan; Kakabadse, Andrew [in: Rethinking the Future of Europe. A Challenge of Governance]
    Multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSI) are important in dealing with (global) governance gaps in many dimensions – economic, ecological, social and cultural. However, their effectiveness is under scrutiny by both academics and practitioners. In this Chapter, Nathan attempts to derive the minimal and common conditions – freedom as non-domination, and recognition – for input justice on deliberation for MSI, critiquing liberal deliberative democracy and advocating modern civic republicanism. He further challenges the idea of the common good and invites us to consider the common concerns of the choices. This Chapter aims to encourage debate and discussion on the possibility and plausibility of innovating governance structures based on these minimal and common conditions for input justice for (global) multi-stakeholder deliberation.

    Non-essentialist model of culture within multicultural/multinational organizations
    (06/2013) Nathan, Ganesh
    This paper first briefly clarifies the notions of essentialism versus non-essentialism and presents widely cited models of culture with varying dimensions: five (Hofstede), seven (Trompenaars and Hampden-Turner) and nine (GLOBE study) - referred to as the 5-7-9 cultural dimensions in this paper - and critiques the underlying notions of essentialism that can lead to ethical concerns restricting the capacity for agency and choice which are necessary for the democratization of organizations. It then presents a model of culture within the paradigm of anti-essentialism, adapting the model presented by Nathan (2010) within the topic of multiculturalism based on Dithey’s works on social interactionism and meaning in history, shows that the model can pave the way to the democratization of organizations, and discusses the implications of organization culture in terms of agency, identity, and structure within multinational/multicultural organizations. The paper concludes by encouraging further research to enhance the non-essentialist model of culture within organizational studies.

    Re-theorizing the firm
    (07/2012) Nathan, Ganesh
    This paper attempts to re-theorize the firm from a socio-political perspective to show that a firm is not only an economic, but also a social and a political actor. Given the multiple global crises, our traditional understanding of the purpose of the firm – the maximization of shareholder value – is increasingly being challenged. This paper shows that the purpose of the firm is rooted in our social life, and hence a notion of well-being and social justice gains significance rather than wealth creation to underscore the role of responsible governance for sustainability in many dimensions – economic, social and environmental. It concludes that the purpose of the firm should go beyond profit maximization of shareholders in pursuit of well-being of stakeholders and in deliberating global social justice for a sustainable world order.

    Self-Respect as a Normative Foundation to Integrate Integrity into Responsible Leadership
    (06/2011) Nathan, Ganesh
    There is a growing interest among academic researchers and practitioners in management studies to show that integrity maters for leadership and performance. Although integrity is generally understood as honouring one’s words with a plausible link with ethics and morality, it is not clear whether there is any responsibility for leaders to act with integrity. Integrity is shown to be a positive phenomenon for leadership and performance without any normative foundation. This paper attempts to show that responsible leadership requires a normative foundation of self-respect and thereby it shows that integrity can be integrated in leadership ethics for responsible leadership.
