The role of values in business has been increasingly in the spotlight in recent years. Research has shown that consumers want to purchase from, and employees want to work for, businesses with strong social values, values that are authentic and well adhered to. To a greater extent, it is understood that single-minded pursuit of profit maximization unmoored from values may not actually maximize profits. This general observation, however, still leaves a lot of ground to be covered, in the development of both theory and best practices.
