How to use "Dirty dealing" in context?
The use of dirty dealing in business is not only unfair, but can also be harmful to both the business and the individual involved. Dirty dealing can include any activity that is designed to unfairly persuade somebody to act in a certain way, in order to benefit the individual without regard to the other person's best interests. This can range from using threats or blackmail to tampering with the facts to manipulate the outcome of a situation.
Despite the consequences, dirty dealing can be surprisingly common. In many cases, it is simply a way to make quick deals that sacrifice the long-term interests of both parties.
