– From an organizational ethics perspective, what does the phrase “Tone at the top” mean to you? Why do you think this reference has so much meaning in any organization?

– Respond to at least one of your classmates with a real-life example of tone at the top from the past year as described by your classmate. Explain how your example relates to your classmate’s definition.

RESPOND TO THIS CLASSMATES POST:

Jennifer Simmons

An organization’s leadership creates the tone at the top – an ethical (or unethical) atmosphere in the workplace. Management’s tone has a trickle-down effect on employees. If top managers uphold ethics and integrity so will employees. But if upper management appears unconcerned with ethics and focuses solely on the bottom line, employees will be more prone to commit fraud and feel that ethical conduct isn’t a priority. In short, employees will follow the examples of their bosses.
