Bad behaviour is sweeping the business world. First there was Tesco, that was forced to sack four senior executives after artificially inflating profits by £250 million.
Then Lloyds announced the dismissal of eight dealers after what chief executive Antonio Horta-Osorio described as “completely unacceptable behaviour.” The eight were dismissed for attempting to rig the inter-bank lending rate Libor.
While these are both extreme cases of staff misconduct, it left me thinking about the importance of workplace climate. What impact can this have on staff behaviour and how can we teach our leaders to influence and shape this environment?
