What if business ethics had less to do with rules and compliance, and more to do with beauty, gestures, and the poetics of organizational life? Business Aesth/ethics: Dialogic Perspectives upends conventional moral frameworks by inviting aesthetics into the heart of ethical inquiry. Through a sustained dialogue between philosophy, social sciences and management, the authors champion a “situated aesth/ethics” grounded in context, affect, and improvisation. The first part dismantles myths of managerial objectivity showing how they conceal deeper ethical tensions. The second part turns to art, history, and lived examples to reveal how beaux gestes can interrupt, reorient, or subvert organizational routines. Writing together across disciplinary lines, Bouilloud and Deslandes not only advocate dialogical thinking - they perform it. In a world where organizations shape nearly every corner of life, this book opens a space for dissonance, irony, and care.
