Hardback
Description
The one bad apple spoiling the whole barrel has become a common metaphor used with reference to risk culture in organisations.
This "inside-out" perspective begins with the individual as the unit of analysis and follows with inferences to the broader environment.
Since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008, risk culture for many has become the explanation for shortcomings, poor decisions, and moral failures in organisations.
This volume presents an institutional perspective of the forces that shape risk culture, and culture more generally, in organisations through a multi-disciplinary examination from a variety of leading academics and subject specialists.
The authors demonstrate that firms play a role as manufacturers and managers of risk and they challenge common conceptions that attribute risk to chance circumstances or rogue behaviours.
The foundational concepts needed for an institutional view of risk culture are highlighted with subsequent links to significant developments within society and firms.
