According to Ethics Resource Center (2010), the important influence of people’s behaviors in the organization is based on the circumstance of working environment they are in, also the standards set by the employers and employees. If people having good behaviors are put in the negative behaviors that does not value values or even are pressure them to do something without any giving alternative to make decision, it is clear that they would not conduct it well or would conduct negative behaviors. This can illustrate that working environment have the big impacts on people’s behaviors. The mentioned environment is like a culture that can be changed as places are shifted. Culture is a standard that is set by people in a particular community, which cannot easily be modified if the one who is intended to change is not so powerful that everyone in the community would admit. Looking in the big picture, cultures exist in every country and in every community. To narrow down, in the society of the country, it could be categorized into many parts, but there is one factor that has a big impact on society along with people in the society, which is the business section. Business and society indirectly and directly influence each other. To maintain the society, it is crucially dependent on business. Simultaneously, business section also depends on people in the society. In business itself, there is also a culture that is set in order to control employees in the corporate. Clearly, making profit is the goal of doing business. What if the business activity could gain huge number of profits but damage both the society and people in the organizations? Therefore, this comes to the big issue that will be stated in this essay, business in relating to ethics.
In organizations, leaders and subordinates are always affected with each other. They both are the ones who set the standards of the organization
