Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research is to construct a new research perspective that contributes to realize organizational ethics. Two research approaches, normative approach and critical approach, have been engaged on organizational ethics previously. Both of these approaches have clarified norm or oppressive aspects of ethical rules, plans or organizational structure. However, these research approaches have not clarified how to realize organizational ethics. In this regard, our research applies the insights from narrative approach of social constructionism to tackle above remaining issues. Narrative approach focuses on the generative aspect of dialogue between actors to generate social reality. Based on the insights, we propose generative aspect of organizational ethics thorough dialogical process.
