It synthesizes the vast, siloed research on business transparency to develop and provide an integrative view for business researchers and scholars, pointing out research opportunities in the process. The first chapter introduces business transparency with a brief historical overview, followed by its key conceptualizations and challenges. Chapters 2 through 5 take up four conceptually distinct views of transparency in depth: transparency as strategic disclosure (Chapter 2), transparency as a business tactic (Chapter 3), transparency as organizational culture (Chapter 4) and transparency as a managerial virtue (Chapter 5). Chapter 6 explores transparencys infeasibility challenge through the chasm between disclosure and understanding and considers its implications. The final chapter provides an integrative framework of business transparency. This book will be useful to business academics who are interested in transparency and associated concepts. Utpal Dholakia is a Professor of Marketing and holds the George R. Brown chair at the Jones Graduate School of Business, Rice University, USA. He has published over a hundred articles and written two books. His academic work concerns pricing strategy, customer experience, entrepreneurship, and digital marketing. 001461845 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 10, 2023). 001461845 650_0 $$aBusiness. 001461845 650_0 $$aIndustrial management. 001461845 650_0 $$aTransparency (Philosophy) 001461845 650_0 $$aBusiness ethics. 001461845 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461845 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031121449$$z9783031121449$$w(OCoLC)1332780992 001461845 852__ $$bebk 001461845 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-12145-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461845 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461845$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461845 980__ $$aBIB 001461845 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461845 982__ $$aEbook 001461845 983__ $$aOnline 001461845 994__ $$a92$$bISE
