Corporate Psychopaths and Systemic Psychopathy
Systemic psychopathy is the idea that an organisational culture can be so much influenced by the presence of conscience-free managers (i.e. corporate psychopaths) that the whole organisation begins to mimic those corporate psychopaths and to behave in a similarly unethical manner. Employees look to their leaders as role models and are thus socialised into behaving more unethically than they would usually.
