We develop a model of ethical decision making that integrates the decision-making process and the content variables considered
by individuals facing ethical dilemmas. The process described in the model is drawn from Janis and Mann’s [1977, Decision Making: A Psychological Analysis of Conflict Choice and Commitment (The Free Press, New York)] work describing the decision process in an environment of conflict, choice and commitment. The
model is enhanced by the inclusion of content variables derived from the ethics literature. The resulting integrated model
aids in understanding the complexity of the decision process used by individuals facing ethical dilemmas and suggests variable
interactions that could be field-tested. A better understanding of the process will help managers develop policies that enhance
the likelihood of ethical behavior in their organizations.

This paper summarizes the results of an analysis of empirical data on ethical attitudes of professionals and managers in relation
to organizational core values in the Information Technology (IT) industry. This study investigates the association between
key organizational values as independent variables and the ethical attitudes of IT managers as dependent variables. The study
also delves into differences among IT non-managerial professionals, mid-level managers, and upper-level managers in their
ethical attitudes and perceptions. Research results indicated that IT professionals from mechanistic organizations were much
more likely to report – compared to those from organic organizations – that managers in their corporate environment engage
in behaviors considered unethical and that successful managers were more unethical relative to unsuccessful managers. There
were significant differences between the upper-level managers and the mid-level managers and between the mid-level managers
and the IT non-managerial professionals on certain key ethical issues. This paper discusses the conceptual framework, hypotheses,
research methodology, data analysis, implications of the findings, and suggested areas of further research.

Organizations increasingly introduce wearable devices, hoping to improve organizational performance. Wearables provide new and unique opportunities for engaging employees with their work and their organizational environment. The performance-related feedback these devices provide is supposed to help both employees and managers navigate the work environment more effectively. Despite the compelling benefits of wearables, they may prove to be detrimental to organizational performance unless a number of ethical issues are addressed. This article provides an overview of the benefits that certain wearable technologies can provide employees and managers, as well as the challenges they may create for organizations. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to determine whether there is a relationship between a person’s degree of religiousness and corporate
social responsibility orientation. A total of 411 managers and 506 students from seven universities were surveyed. The statistical
analysis showed that religiousness does influence students’ orientation toward the economic, ethical, and philanthropic responsibilities
of business. It does not, however, have a significant impact upon the managers’ attitudes. When the “low religiousness” students
and managers were compared, differences were found with respect to the economic, ethical, and philanthropic components of
corporate social responsibility. Similar results were obtained when the “high religiousness” students and managers were compared.
The implications of these findings are discussed.

This research examines, in a general manner, the degree and character of perceptual congruity between salespeople and managers on ethical issues. Salespeople and managers from a diversity of organizations were presented with three scenarios having varying degrees of ethical content and were asked to evaluate the action of the individual in each scenario. Findings indicate that, in every instance, the participating managers tended (1) to be more critical of the action displayed in the scenarios, (2) to view the action as violating a sense of contract or promise, and (3) to view the action as less culturally acceptable than did the salespeople.Tony L.

Softlifting: Exploring Determinants of Attitude 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Softlifting, or the illegal duplication of copyrighted software by individuals for personal use, is a serious and costly problem
for software developers and distributors. Understanding the factors that determine attitude toward softlifting is important
in order to ascertain what motivates individuals to engage in the behavior. We examine a number of factors, including personal
moral obligation (PMO), perceived usefulness, and awareness of the laws and regulations governing software acquisition and
use, along with facets of personal self-identity that may play a role in the development of attitudes and therefore intentions
regarding this behavior. These factors are examined across multiple settings expected to be pertinent to our survey respondents:
home, work and school. Personal moral obligation and perceived usefulness are significant predictors of attitude across all
settings. Past behavior is a significant predictor of intention across all settings, and a significant predictor of attitude
in the home setting. We find evidence that awareness of the law causes a less favorable evaluation of softlifting in the school
setting only, but has little effect in the home and work settings. As in previous studies, attitude is a significant predictor
of intent. We do not find indications that one’s personal self-identity influences one’s attitude towards the behavior and
the intention to perform it, except in the case of legal identity, where marginally significant effects are found in the work
environment.

This study investigates ethical decision-making by considering the differences in ethical judgments between undergraduate business and MBA students on selected ethical issues facing employees and managers of today's businesses. The study further investigates differences in ethical judgments between undergraduates and MBAs in terms of a perceived position as an employee or as a manager. The findings indicate that undergraduate students tend to be more ethical than MBA students and that both groups tend to be more ethical when they perceive themselves as managers rather than employees. The authors discuss the implications for both business practitioners and educators.Shohreh A.

Hirschman's (1970) exit, voice, and loyalty framework draws attention to both economic and political behavior as instruments for organizational change. The framework is simple but powerful; it has stimulated much cross-disciplinary analysis and debate. This paper extends this analysis by examining normative implications of Hirschman's basic premise: that exit and voice are primarily mechanisms for enhancing organizational (vs. individual) well-being.

This paper attempts to cross the disciplinary boundaries of strategic management and social issues management to demonstrate the relationship between managerial characteristics and corporate social performance (CSP). Drawing on studies in strategic leadership research we develop and test hypotheses about linkages between top management attributes and different levels of CSP. Our results add credence to the argument that organizations are a reflection of their top managers, and encourage further systematic research of the influence of key executives in developing and implementing socially responsible policies and programs.Dr Anisya S.

Organizational governance has historically focused around the perspective of principals and managers and has traditionally
pursued the goal of maximizing owner wealth. This paper suggests that organizational governance can profitably be viewed from
the ethical perspective of organizational followers – employees of the organization to whom important ethical duties are also
owed. We present two perspectives of organizational governance: Principal Theory that suggests that organizational owners
and managers can often be ethically opportunistic and take advantage of employees who serve them and Principle Theory that
focuses on guiding principles that are sometimes taken too far in organizations. In introducing these two new organizational
governance perspectives, we offer insights into the value of rethinking ethical duties owed to organizational followers.

Companies offer ethics codes and training to increase employees’ ethical conduct. These programs can also enhance individual
work attitudes because ethical organizations are typically valued. Socially responsible companies are likely viewed as ethical
organizations and should therefore prompt similar employee job responses. Using survey information collected from 313 business
professionals, this exploratory study proposed that perceived corporate social responsibility would mediate the positive relationships
between ethics codes/training and job satisfaction. Results indicated that corporate social responsibility fully or partially
mediated the positive associations between four ethics program variables and individual job satisfaction, suggesting that
companies might better manage employees’ ethical perceptions and work attitudes with multiple policies, an approach endorsed
in the ethics literature.

This paper reviews studies of corporate ethical codes published since 2000 and concludes that codes be can effective instruments
for shaping ethical behavior and guiding employee decision-making. Culture and effective communication are key components
to a code’s success. If codes are embedded in the culture and embraced by the leaders, they are likely to be successful. Communicating
the code’s precepts in an effective way is crucial to its success. Discussion between employees and management is a key component
of successful ethical codes.

Of recent time, there has been a proliferation of concerns with ethical leadership within corporate business not least because of the numerous scandals at Enron, Worldcom, Parmalat, and two major Irish banks – Allied Irish Bank (AIB) and National Irish Bank (NIB). These have not only threatened the position of many senior corporate managers but also the financial survival of some of the companies over which they preside. Some authors have attributed these scandals to the pre-eminence of a focus on increasing shareholder value in Western business schools and/or to their failure to inculcate ethical standards. In this paper, we challenge these accounts and the aetiological view of knowledge from which they derive but are grateful for the consensus that they convey regarding the importance of business ethics. The paper focuses on different approaches to ethical leadership concluding with a view that some hybrid of MacIntyre’s virtue ethics and Levinas’s ethics of responsibility may serve as an inspiration for both educators and practitioners.

This study investigated whether employee perceptions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) were associated with the presence
of Corporate Psychopaths in corporations. The article states that, as psychopaths are 1% of the population, it is logical
to assume that every large corporation has psychopaths working within it. To differentiate these people from the common perception
of psychopaths as being criminals, they have been called “Corporate Psychopaths” in this research. The article presents quantitative
empirical research into the influence of Corporate Psychopaths on four perceptual measures of CSR and three further measures
of organizational commitment to employees. The article explains who Corporate Psychopaths are and delineates the measures
of CSR and organizational commitment to employees that were used. It then outlines the research conducted among 346 corporate
employees in Australia in 2008. The reliability of the instrument used is commented on favorably in terms of its statistical
reliability and its face and external validity. Results of the research are described showing the highly significant and negative
influence of Corporate Psychopaths on all of the measures of CSR and of organizational commitment to employees used in the
research. When Corporate Psychopaths are present in leadership positions within organizations, employees are less likely to
agree with views that: the organization does business in a socially desirable manner; does business in an environmentally
friendly manner and that the organization does business in a way that benefits the local community. Also, when Corporate Psychopaths
are present in leadership positions within organizations, employees are significantly less likely to agree that the corporation
does business in a way that shows commitment to employees, significantly less likely to feel that they receive due recognition
for doing a good job, to feel that their work was appreciated and to feel that their efforts were properly rewarded. The article
argues that academics and researchers in the area of CSR cannot ignore the influence of individual managers. This is particularly
the case when those managers have dysfunctional personalities, or are actually psychopaths. The article further argues that
the existence of Corporate Psychopaths should be of interest to those involved in corporate management and corporate governance
because their presence influences the way corporations are run and how corporations affect society and the environment. 相似文献

Large organisations are especially advised to consider the possibility of an Ethics Helpdesk in which all employees and managers can report with all suspected cases of unethical conduct, critical comments, dilemmas and advice for which there is insufficient room within the organisational hierarchy. A helpdesk is a central contact point where it is decided who the most appropriate person is to dealing with a given case. The helpdesk model is characterised by low barriers in its easy accessibility, positive approach and the simple procedures employees need to follow. It offers employees consistent support while relying on the responsibilities of the individual employee as much as possible and it facilitates adequate monitoring and reporting. A helpdesk increases the chances of detecting unethical conduct which enables management to take adequate and timely measures against improper conduct. This article formulates principles, discusses critical factors and considers three models for adopting a sound and integrated ethics safety net. It also presents a case study and shows why organisational openness needs to be institutionalised. 相似文献

This study empirically tests the effects of mutual fund management fees and control structures on the likelihood of illegal
activity within mutual fund organizations. Specific attention is given to the presence of agency duality issues in the mutual
fund industry and how this influences the motivations and decisions of fund managers. Findings provide support for the hypothesized
relationship that higher levels of management fees decrease the likelihood of illegal behavior. Additionally, control of the
mutual fund by external management is found to have a negative impact on the likelihood of illegal activity while also acting
as a moderator of the management fee-illegal behavior relationship.

The relationship between tenure and principled reasoning is of vital importance to the fields of management and business ethics, as more tenured managers often hold influential posts and have the ability to affect the overall ethical tones of their organizations. Few researchers have studied this relationship, however, and those studies that have been conducted have produced mixed results. While some researchers have found that greater tenure is associated with higher levels of ethical reasoning, others have found the reverse to be true. The findings of this particular study of 270 current U.S. corporate managers, who responded to a nationwide survey, indicated that there is indeed a link between tenure and principled reasoning. More tenured managers demonstrated lower principled reasoning than their less tenured counterparts. As the number of years of tenure increased, principled reasoning scores declined. The results of this study, as well as a comparison to the results of previous studies that have been conducted, are discussed within this paper. 相似文献

Corporate Entrepreneurs or Rogue Middle Managers? A Framework for Ethical Corporate Entrepreneurship
Corporate entrepreneurs -- described in the academic literature as those managers or employees who do not follow the status quo of their co-workers -- are depicted as visionaries who dream of taking the company in new directions. As a result, though, in overcoming internal obstacles to reaching their professional goals they can often walk a fine line between clever resourcefulness and outright rule breaking. A framework is presented as a guideline for middle managers and organizations seeking to impede unethical behaviors in the pursuit of entrepreneurial activity. This paper examines the barriers middle managers face in trying to be entrepreneurial in less supportive environments, the ethical consequences that can result, and a suggested assessment and training program for averting such dilemmas. We advise companies that embrace corporate entrepreneurship: (1) establish the needed flexibility, innovation, and employee initiative and risk-taking; (2) remove the barriers that the entrepreneurial middle manager may face to more closely align personal and organizational initiatives and reduce the need to behave unethically; and (3) include an ethical component to corporate training which will provide guidelines for instituting compliance and values components into the state-of-the-art corporate entrepreneurship programs. 相似文献

This paper examines ethics in organizations in relation to the subjectivity of managers. Drawing on the work of Michel Foucault we seek to theorize ethics in terms of the meaning of being a manager
who is an active ethical subject. Such a manager is so in relation to the organizational structures and norms that govern
the conduct of ethics. Our approach locates ethics in the relation between individual morality and organizationally prescribed
principles assumed to guide personal action. In this way we see ethics as a practice that is powerfully intertwined in an
individual’s freedom to make choices about what to do and who to be, and the organizational context in which those choices
are situated, framed and governed. 相似文献
