Abstract
Corruption is a major concern that impacts organizations at international, national, and local levels. This chapter delves into the components of corruption, investigates factors that can leave organizations vulnerable to corruption, provides notable examples of corruption, and suggests mitigating factors, ethical leadership and ethical culture, that can reduce and/or prevent corruption from taking place. Framing corruption as an ethical dilemma allows organizational risk factors and economic pressures to be examined and highlighting corruption as a real and pressing threat adds to the morality and social responsibility literatures.
