The other article I chose is “Why Unethical People Make Unethical Choices” and I chose this because I just think it would hopefully make me understand. A couple things I found interesting was that Carucci points out that it’s psychologically unsafe to speak up. To me, most CEOs or bosses says you can stop by if you need anything or if you have any ideas my door is open when it’s really not in most cases. In this article, Morrison states that people are just afraid of the consequences if they do say something or they think their boss won’t listen to them.
Another big thing as to why unethical people make unethical choices is because positive example aren’t being set. Carruci says, “Leaders must accept they are held to higher standards than others. They must be extra vigilant about not just their intentions, but how it is others might interpret their behavior. While they can’t control every possible misinterpretation, leaders who know their people well make careful choices in how they react to stressful situations, confront poor performance, how politic they are in the face of controversy, and how receptive they are to bad news.” According to this, this is why you have to get to know your employees and be able to approach them the right way. Also, hypocrisy is mentioned which I think is huge when you’re in a leadership role. For example, you can’t tell me to do something or whatever the case may be and you aren’t doing that as well.
