Unethical behaviour by employees remains a formidable challenge for organizations well into the 21st century, and it is still regrettably common in the workplace: from private, public, to non-governmental. In his dissertation, "Unravelling Team Ethical Culture: The Existence, Relevance and Implications for Ethics Management", ERIM's Guillem Casoliva Cabana explored the role of team ethical culture (TEC) in the prevention of unethical behaviour. His dissertation aims to improve our understanding of TEC and its role in designing an ethics program effective at preventing unethical behaviour. Overall, this dissertation’s novelty in the study of ethical culture is the use of one organization as a case study, while contributing to a better understanding of the effectiveness of ethics programs in preventing unethical behaviour across teams.
