The Escalation of Deception in Organizations

چکیده
We develop a process model that explains the escalation of deception in corrupt organizations. If undetected, an initial lie can begin a process whereby the ease, severity and pervasiveness of deception increases overtime so that it eventually becomes an organization level phenomenon. We propose that organizational complexity has an amplifying effect. A feedback loop between organization level deception and each of the escalation stages positively reinforces the process.
