The focus of the second programme is on big business corporations and how they can become "virtuous." The programme begins in the church of the Square Mile with a look at "The rules for the conduct of life" - written in 1740 and still given to every freeman of the city of London about how to conduct trade. Today, Big Business is asking how it can build virtue into its staff and into its structures.

James also explores the role of Corporate Social Responsibility Programmes with the CEO of KPMG, Simon Collins.
