Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business ethics are an important part of corporate sustainability. Sustainability concerns not only the environment but also the well-being of employees, which includes work engagement. Authentic leadership has an impact on the work engagement and well-being of subordinates. The aim of the current research is to present the interdependencies between leadership, work engagement, and unethical pro-organizational behavior. A group of 623 employees from various organizations working in various positions in Central and Eastern Poland was surveyed. The relationships between the variables were analyzed using CB-SEM structural modeling methods. The estimation was completed on the basis of the highest probability method. The CB-SEM model was applied in order to verify the hypotheses that had been formulated. The current paper presents an intermediate role of work engagement between supervisors' leadership and the unethical pro-organizational behavior of subordinates. The survey shows that authentic leadership induces subordinates to engage in unethical pro-organizational behavior. Practical implications were formulated, including company board greater integration of ethics into the core values of organizations and emphasis on learning business ethics in universities and MBA studies.

Download or read book Unethical Pro Organizational Behavior The Role of Loyalty in Ethical Leadership written by Ilka Büker and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-08-03 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,7, University of Cologne, language: English, abstract: Leaders act as mediators between an organization and its employees. They are agents of the organization and have a role model function for their followers. Since leaders play a significant role in motivating ethical behaviour of their subordinates, most scholars have focused on the consequences of leader behaviour on their followers. However, it is more complex and therefore ethical behaviour should be determined in a first step. Imagine a situation in which someone detects a colleague hiding information about the environmental pollution of a new production process. Is it ethically right to collaborate and be loyal to the colleagues and protect the entire organization? Or is it ethically right to tell the truth to supervisors or the public to protect the environment and a larger society? What about a situation in which someone observes a co-worker manipulating sales numbers that are necessary to achieve group targets? Is it ethically right to collaborate and maintain silence? Or is it ethically right to tell the truth even though group objectives cannot be achieved by being honest? What, if jobs are related to achievement of objects and are possibly cut in case of not obtaining these targets? Imagine a situation in which someone withholds relevant information about a customer to other members of the organization who do not work on the same team. Is it ethically right to deprive these information in order to give an edge to the in-group? Or is it ethically right to share those details across all colleagues who hold a stake in order to improve the overall performance? What is perceived as ethically right, wrong or desirable differs across cultures, organizations, individuals and situations. In contrast to the leader perspective of previous scholars and considering those differences Fehr, Yam and Dang took a follower-centric perspective on ethical leadership. Within their novel conceptualization of ethical leader perception moralized leader behaviour can entail value consistent behaviour, depending on what is morally relevant to an individual and the organizational culture. If ethical leader behaviour is subject to moral values of an individual or of the organization, it depends on either the organization and the leader’s behaviour or the moral identity of a follower and the leader’s behaviour, if this behaviour is perceived as ethically right or desirable.

Download or read book The Effect of Leaders Pro organizational Unethical Behavior on Followers written by Jingjing Ma and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pro-organizational unethical behavior refers to behaviors that aim to benefit the organizations and violate moral norms or standards. Based on the overarching framework of moral cleansing, the current work presents a model describing the indirect effect that leaders' unethical pro-organizational behavior has on followers' subsequent ethical behavior via followers' moral judgment of leader behavior and their feelings of guilt, as well as the moderation effect of followers' identification with the organization and identification with the leader on this indirect effect. Study 1 used a laboratory experimental design and data from 300 undergraduate students demonstrated a positive relationship between leaders' unethical pro-organizational behavior and followers' perceived immorality of leader behavior and the buffering moderation effect of followers' identification with the organization on this relationship. Study 2 used a correlational survey design and collected data from 490 full-time employees. Study 2 replicated the findings of Study 1 and observed a positive relationship between followers' perceived immorality of leader behavior and their feelings of guilt and the strengthening moderation effect of followers' identification with the leader on this relationship. Study 2 further demonstrated that followers' guilt was positively related to their subsequent engagement of ethical behavior that directly or indirectly compensated for the leaders' unethical conducts. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These chapters on ‘Responsible Leadership’ represent the latest thinking on a topic of increasing relevance in a connected world. There are many challenges that still remain when it comes to establishing responsible leadership both in theory and practice. Whilst offering conceptualisations for the improvement of leadership is a first and perhaps easier response, what is more difficult is to facilitate the actual change to happen. These chapters will not only generate interest in the emerging domain of studies on responsible leadership, but also will pave the way for future research in this area in the years to come.

Download or read book Handbook of Unethical Work Behavior written by Robert A. Giacalone and published by M.E. Sharpe. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unethical behavior in the workplace affects countless people every year. Workers in many organizations are subjected to insidious treatment such as harassment, discrimination, and bullying. However, most research and discussion of unethical business behavior has focused solely on its financial and legal effects and not on the health and well-being of the individuals working for the organization. This handbook has been crafted to address this gap. It covers the widest possible range of organizational misbehaviors (age, race, and gender discrimination, abuse, bullying, aggression, violence, fraud and corruption), all with an eye toward the effects on individual and organizational health and well-being. The Handbook is the first-ever single-source resource on this important topic.
Download or read book Leadership and the Ethics of Influence written by Terry L. Price and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do leaders influence others? Although they sometimes appeal directly to good reasons, which we associate with rational persuasion, leaders also use guilt, pressure, flattery, bullying, and rewards and punishment—all to get the behaviors that they want. Even when leaders refrain from outright lying, they are nevertheless known to practice something approaching, perhaps reaching, the level of manipulation. Influence therefore presents a serious ethical problem across leadership contexts. Leadership and the Ethics of Influence argues that influence puts leaders at risk of using people. It is generally disrespectful of autonomy to figure out what makes people "tick" in an effort to "handle" them. In contrast with physical force, influence works through agency, not around it. Despite this feature of influence—and, to a large extent because of it—the everyday influence associated with leadership is often morally troublesome. What matters morally is not only whether agency is bypassed or overridden but also who is ultimately in control. This book uses philosophy and leadership studies to show how leaders across different contexts can be justified in getting followers to do things. Connecting moral theory to leadership theory, and especially to charismatic leadership, authentic leadership, transforming leadership, and ethical leadership, this book is essential reading for leadership scholars, students, and practitioners.

Download or read book The Integrity of the Servant Leader written by Robert Sumi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of the global financial crisis is still being felt today and the deeply unethical behaviour of the top level leaders at those economic and financial organizations, that were at the heart of the crisis, has served to highlight the importance of integrity, and in particular the need for servant leadership, if we are to avoid another major catastrophe in the management of both commercial and non-profit organizations. Servant leadership has many features in common with transformational leadership but is primarily focused on caring about employees and their personal development. Ethical behaviour is one of the most important components of successful leadership yet this remains insufficiently investigated, especially from an interdisciplinary perspective. With the help of theory, empirical analysis and the relevant methodological apparatus, the authors fill the gap in the analysis of integrity and its impact on leadership and locate the significant factors which affect integrity in general. They develop and assess the forces that impact Servant Leadership style, as well as the ability to engender trust. As a starting point they make two assumptions: An important element in leading is the ethical dimension of leadership; The ratio of factors that affect leading and the servant leadership style is complex, but the integrity of leaders is the most important among them. The authors examine four integrated scientific areas: ethics and business ethics, human resource management and psychology and focus on the analysis of the process of leadership and the factors within that process of leading that influence its success and its ethical dimension.
