Ignacio Ferrero, the Dean of the School of Economics and Business Administration, and Alejo José G. Sison, a lecturer of Business Ethics, address the approach of virtue ethics in the business world and management in the book Handbook of Virtue Ethics in Business and Management.

The book begins with an introduction on the history and chronology of virtue ethics to provide acomplete overview of the development of this topic and the most influential authors and works. The second part of the book presents a systematic approach to this field and the main topics. They consist of conceptual, empirical and applied contributions, as well as case studies. The authors provide a look at different areas where virtue ethics have been applied and show the effect they have on different parts of the company. Finally, the authors examine the answers virtue ethics can offer to the most important questions facing 21st-century companies.
