This article demonstrates that when supervisors encourage subordinates to defer to their embodied expertise, subordinates are more likely to voice explicitly moralized upward dissent to an unethical business request. Working adults (N = 312) were randomly assigned to respond to an unethical business request from their boss in one of three scenarios that varied by how much the supervisor was known for encouraging deference to (a) embodied knowing, (b) intellectual reasoning, or (c) neither (i.e., a baseline control condition). Analyses revealed that participants were more than twice as likely to voice their private moral concerns explicitly with their boss when the supervisor was known for valuing subordinates’ embodied expertise (e.g., “going with your gut feelings”). In addition, participants also reported feeling significantly less communication anxiety in that same condition. Implications for leading organizational ethics conclude the article.

鼓励组织中向上的道德异议:尊重具体专业知识的作用

本文表明,当主管鼓励下属服从他们的具体专业知识时,下属更有可能对不道德的业务要求表达明确的道德向上的反对意见。在三种情况中的一种情况下,随机分配在职成年人(N = 312)响应老板的不道德业务要求,这些情况取决于主管鼓励尊重(a)体现的知识,(b)智力推理,或 (c) 两者都不是(即基线控制条件)。分析显示,当上司以重视下属的专业知识(例如,“凭直觉行事”)而闻名时,参与者向上司明确表达私人道德问题的可能性要高出两倍以上。此外,参与者还报告说,在同样的情况下,他们的沟通焦虑明显减少。本文总结了对领导组织道德的影响。
