In order to restore a noble meaning to professional commitment and consolidate a corporate culture, managers display their goodwill by adopting ethical charters and codes of conduct which highlight the virtues of the Samurai : honesty, courage, benevolence, loyalty…Just like Bushidô (or “The Way of the Warrior”) and the Hagakure gave the Samurai a framework and a code of conduct which already affirmed these same qualities. But be careful ! Proclaiming values that are not shared fools no one. And without the participation of employees, the code of good conduct does not always affirm a real commitment. A declaration of intent has nothing in common with the Way of the Warrior. Because becoming a Samurai required a lifetime of practice to acquire perfection of gesture and mind.. This book is aimed at managers who have a sincere desire to progress, to be inspired by values and virtues that will make their teams want to engage with them in good practices.
