Abstract
The aim of this thesis is to conceptualize about the need for, and nature and implications of, virtues in organizations. This thesis examines as to how to understand the current trends of ethicality within an organization, we need an understanding of virtue ethics. Also it argues as to how universal perspectives of ethics are not applicable to organizational contexts. It then argues as to how the notion of ethicality within organizations and the implementation of ethical practices imply that organizations have certain virtues. Following that, the thesis aims to develop what virtues are important within an organization. Finally, this thesis shows as to how such virtues, if implemented, will lead to certain dimensions of organizational success.
