“…We take the example of the new working conditions created by the Covid-19 health crisis to illustrate our contribution because they are, on the one hand, proving to be an aggravating factor for the pathologies of deliberation; on the other hand, they present an opportunity to overcome them. Concerning the first limitation we identified, the prevalence of working from home, resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, is increasing the risks of ideological conditioning and the risk of considering human interchangeability as possible or even inevitable (Husain, 2021). To reduce the time spent in front of screens and the feeling of increased tension between their professional and personal life, employees may indeed be tempted to focus on productivity and privilege the most objective tasks for the sole purpose of performance and success, with that motivation dominating their engagement in deliberation (Hoff, 2021; Nguyen, 2021; Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD], 2020).…”

Deliberation has faced criticism with regard to its application to business, on the basis that it can be misused to disseminate an ideology, divert attention from genuine debates, or strengthen the power of certain people. We suggest that Aristotle’s notion of deliberation can mitigate these ethical risks and help companies strengthen their deliberative practices. A comprehensive perspective based on Aristotelian deliberation reveals the relevance of (a) individual and collective deliberation, promoting a virtuous and meaningful reflection, free from ideological conditioning; (b) deliberation on ends and means that facilitates a transcendental and rooted reflection, thereby avoiding artificial debates; and (c) deliberation that is decisive and cooperative and thus prevents instrumentalization of deliberation by the strongest. We contribute to the discussion of the relationship between business and society by identifying the different steps in the deliberative process and promoting a dynamic perspective on deliberation.
