Doing Bad Things for Good Reasons: An Examination of Unethical Pro-Organizational Behavior Among Professional Workers
Experience Level: Any level of experience
Unethical behavior in organizations can be extremely costly. It exposes firms to direct costs, such as fines, settlements, and legal expenses, as well as indirect costs like damage to the firm’s reputation. This presentation will examine when employees perform unethical acts to benefit the organization (i.e., unethical pro-organizational behavior), what factors contribute to it, and what professional engineering firms can do to reduce unethical behavior at work. Participants will leave with a specific, documented plan to reduce unethical behavior in their workplace, drawing upon the latest research and customizing solutions to their needs
Learning Outcomes:
•To understand unethical pro-organizational behavior and factors that contribute to it.
•To understand strategies for mitigating the risk that professional workers will act unethically to benefit the organization.
•To understand the potential dark side, or unintended consequences, of professional workers identifying with their organization.
