A new study discusses redefining professionalism and rethinking the boundaries of ethics
According to a new study by Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, “employees or managers who view themselves as professional are more vulnerable to unethical behaviour such as conflicts of interest.”
“However, a large body of social science research shows that much bias from conflicts of interests is unintentional and implicit, and claims of professionalism and integrity do little to protect against unwanted influence.” “Consistent with my predictions, the greater the managers’ sense of professionalism, the more likely they were to report that they would accept gifts from people with questionable or ambiguous agendas, and less likely to be influenced by the specific gifts in the scenarios,” Sah wrote.
“I propose that professionalism be redefined not as an individual characteristic or feeling, but as a set of observable repeated behavioural practises that demonstrates a deep understanding of the concept and promotes outcomes in the interest of clients and the societal good,” Sah says.
