　　左手利益,右手道德

　　It was Bob Diamond, recently of Barclays, who defined business culture as "how peoplebehave when no one is watching." Speaking in a lecture sponsored by the Today programmelast year, he declared that business corporations like Barclays had to learn how to be bettercitizens. Leaving on one side the irony of all this, what is remarkable is not that he said it, butthat so many other people are saying it too. Open any edition of the Harvard Business Reviewor look in the comment pages of the Financial Times, and there it is. "What is wrong with theculture of business and how do we put it right?" they're all asking each other.

　　近來(lái)，巴克萊銀行的鮑勃?戴蒙德把企業(yè)文化形容成“在無(wú)人注意時(shí)做出的舉動(dòng)”。去年，他在由“今日”節(jié)目主辦的演講中稱，像巴克萊銀行這樣的商業(yè)公司必須學(xué)會(huì)如何成為更好的公民。不去討論他說(shuō)出此話有多么諷刺，讓人驚訝的不是他說(shuō)了這句話，而是許多人也都這么說(shuō)。翻開(kāi)任一版本的《哈佛商業(yè)評(píng)論》或者瀏覽《金融時(shí)報(bào)》的評(píng)論網(wǎng)頁(yè)，這句話隨處可見(jiàn)?！捌髽I(yè)文化到底出了什么問(wèn)題，該如何改正?”人們紛紛詢問(wèn)彼此。

　　The Labour MP Jon Cruddas quoted with approval a theologian last year who'd said that ourbasic choice was between a neoliberal and a neo-Aristotelian view of the good society. Neoliberalmeans relying on the free market and the pursuit of self-interest as the driving force, not justin business but in life. We are familiar enough with that. But what about Aristotle, where doeshe come in? The memory of this ancient Greek philosopher is invoked whenever people talkabout virtue and good citizenship, for it is to him primarily that we owe our notions of how weshould behave when no one is watching. We should, he said, behave virtuously, and heclassified virtue under four headings, the so-called cardinal virtues. They are, in whateverorder you like, justice, prudence, temperance and courage. These, said Aristotle, were thepersonal qualities that ancient Athenians needed, in order to be good citizens of democraticAthens to make it work. The many people who are saying that the internal culture of businessbadly needs reform of its values to make it work, are really talking about the Aristotelianvirtues, or something like them. How you behave when nobody's watching depends on qualitiesof character, acquired by good example and by practice.

　　去年，工黨議員喬恩·克魯達(dá)斯引用了他所贊成的一位神學(xué)家的言論：我們最根本是要在新自由主義的優(yōu)質(zhì)社會(huì)和新亞里斯多德主義的優(yōu)質(zhì)社會(huì)中做出選擇。新自由主義意味著依靠自由市場(chǎng)，不僅在商業(yè)中，還在生活中把追逐個(gè)人利益作為驅(qū)動(dòng)力。這已為我們所熟知。而亞里斯多德有何由來(lái)呢?每當(dāng)人們談?wù)撁赖潞蛢?yōu)秀公民素養(yǎng)時(shí)，我們就會(huì)想起這位古代希臘哲學(xué)家，因?yàn)樗铌P(guān)注的就是當(dāng)無(wú)人注意時(shí)人們?nèi)鄙僭撊绾窝孕械母拍?。他提倡為人正直，并把美德分為了四個(gè)標(biāo)題，即所謂的基本美德。它們是堅(jiān)忍 正義、審慎、節(jié)制與勇氣(排序不分先后)。亞里斯多德說(shuō)這些是古代雅典人必須具備的品格，這樣才能成為一個(gè)良好的公民，使民主政體的雅典發(fā)展下去。許多人都說(shuō)企業(yè)亟需改革內(nèi)在文化價(jià)值觀才能繼續(xù)運(yùn)作，他們正是在談?wù)搧喞锼苟嗟率降拿赖?，或者和它類似的東西。當(dāng)無(wú)人留意時(shí)，你的行為取決于你通過(guò)學(xué)習(xí)和實(shí)踐所獲得的品質(zhì)。

　　One place where these ideas are being systematically thought through, is in what is calledCatholic Social Teaching. Business people are slowly becoming more aware of it, including peoplewho do not normally look towards Rome for anything. It provides, so to speak, the theoreticalbasis for a ready-made architecture of virtue. And it says a business culture based on virtuewould strive towards serving the common good rather than just self-interest, and would evenwork better. As well as Aristotle, it owes a lot to the philosopher Thomas Aquinas, whoChristianised the four cardinal virtues by adding three more: faith, hope and charity. Can thebottom line of successful modern business be humanised by taking all these virtues into itsculture, rather than just profit and the maximising of shareholder value? An increasing numberof people seem to think it has no alternative.

　　天主教社會(huì)教學(xué)對(duì)這些思想進(jìn)行了系統(tǒng)性的思考。商業(yè)人士開(kāi)始慢慢注意到了它，包括一些不去借鑒任何經(jīng)驗(yàn)的人。這門(mén)課程可以說(shuō)提供了一個(gè)即成的道德建筑的理論基礎(chǔ)。以道德為基礎(chǔ)的企業(yè)文化會(huì)努力去為大眾謀求福祉，還不僅只是為了一已私利。這樣的企業(yè)會(huì)更加成功。不僅是亞里士多德，哲學(xué)家托馬斯·阿奎那也為這一理論做了不少貢獻(xiàn)。他把四項(xiàng)基本美德加上信、望、愛(ài)，做為_(kāi)___所信奉的美德。成功的現(xiàn)代企業(yè)能不再一味謀利、不斷增加股東價(jià)值，而是把這些美德全部加入自身文化，使其更加人性化嗎?越來(lái)越多的人認(rèn)為現(xiàn)代企業(yè)要想成功，它們就別無(wú)選擇。
