dc.description.abstract |
The case study described the culture at KAN Company specifically how and why an employee in the organization initiated and decided to develop an unethical behavior and how his best friend and colleague knew what he did and confronted him. This was done through describing and elaborating on the wrongdoer background and on the organizational practices. What made this case unique was the fact that throughout the case you could realize the values of the culture in the organization and link them to the behavior of the employees. This case illustrated indirectly the elements of ethical organizational culture, how to evaluate an ethical culture, how to create and raise the standards of this culture and what was the impact of nepotism on it. All of the mentioned points were tied to analyzing human behavior: predisposing factors of unethical behavior, what caused in-attentional blindness, human response to wrongdoing and whistleblowing. It concluded by shedding light on the importance of ethics on business performance and the implication of introducing high technology to the organization and its impact on employees’ ethical behavior. |
