幸福。然而，定義幸福是一項(xiàng)復(fù)雜的任務(wù)。什么能讓人快樂(lè)同一件事給人帶來(lái)快樂(lè)的

程度因人而異。幸福是主觀的、復(fù)雜的。這是一個(gè)多重價(jià)值的世界，我們每個(gè)人都決

定價(jià)值，而不是僅僅基于經(jīng)濟(jì)觀點(diǎn)的“一個(gè)固定價(jià)格”。個(gè)體不應(yīng)該被定義為單一的

身份或角色，而應(yīng)該被定義為多維的本質(zhì)和多重的角色，在不同的方面為自己的幸福

做出獨(dú)立的選擇和行動(dòng)。）可知，一個(gè)繁榮的世界應(yīng)該用多種價(jià)值觀來(lái)衡量。故選

追求全體社會(huì)公民幸福的先鋒。企業(yè)可以通過(guò)追求社會(huì)價(jià)值和經(jīng)濟(jì)利潤(rùn)來(lái)做出貢獻(xiàn)。

這個(gè)問(wèn)題的核心是“目的”，公司的宗旨決定了它給社會(huì)帶來(lái)的價(jià)值。一家公司的真

正價(jià)值不僅取決于它為股東創(chuàng)造的回報(bào)，還應(yīng)取決于它為整個(gè)社會(huì)創(chuàng)造的價(jià)值。）可
