Abstract

AbstractCorruption is truly a global scourge. Ethical scandals are recurring theater on the business stage, coming most often in the wake of financial booms that feed individual greed and lead managers to make decisions that favor personal gain over organizational good. The recurring cycle of scandalreform‐scandal, however, demonstrates the challenges of ethics management. Some companies are discovering a better way to confront the challenge and managing not just ethics, but corruption as well. The advantage of a corruption perspective lies in its focus on systems instead of a personal philosophy. Taking a corruption management perspective doesn't ignore the individual but sees the individual in a larger systemic context. Taking a corruption management approach requires fusing the insights of managerial ethics with the tactics used to fight systemic corruption. When successful it creates something simple and elegant: integrity. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
