So, what is the central flaw with Utilitarianism? Does that render the concept unusable for us business

Question:

So, what is the central flaw with Utilitarianism? Does that render the concept unusable for us business managers? How would you apply The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula Le Guin to contemporary issues, for example Global Warming?
Also on a different note the following apodictic: "Ethics is comprised of one single principle or framework." Can someone please tell me what our authors are saying here?
Then the line: "In short, the end justifies the means." This quote seems to be lifted right off page 94 of my 1952 copy of Niccol, Machiavelli,s work ,The Prince. This is a book that should rightly belong on any and every manager's bookshelf. Are you familiar with Machiavelli's work, and if so, what other words of wisdom has he to offer a business manager?
