Universities  have courses on Ethics in the Workplace; I know this because I have taken such a course. I also know that Organizational Leaders have usually taken such courses or should have taken them. If not their positions would have surely exposed them to the term, ethics. Ethics is important to businesses which are of course in existence to turn a profit. And, ethics is important to the public, afterall who wants to do business with unethical organizations? Somehow, the public  equates ethics with being truthful, trustworthy, and having integrity. The ethical Leader is totally opposite that of the Bully Boss Leader. The Bully Boss manager, supervisor, etc. is known for lying, unethical behavior which includes dishonesty, setting people up for failure, harassing, psychologically tormenting subordinates, running good employees out of the workplace for no justifiable reason and causing people to become ill.  Yet, many organizations seem to keep the bully boss empowering him/her to run amok like a wilder beast in the wild killing and destroying everything it chooses to devour.  Why?

Does the Leadership really condone this behavior?  Is this the culture the Organization wishes to thrive? Even at the cost of profits and productivity?

There are some organizations which do GET IT and which do not allow the bully boss to run amok and I will give accolades to those organizations. Those organizations which do not tolerate the bully boss, criminals, should be held in high esteem for other organizations to aspire.
