To kick off the 4th season, I have two esteemed guests this episode, Tim Kundro and Nancy Rothbard, co-authors of the 'Best Paper' published in AMJ in 2023.  In our conversation, we talk we talk about Tim and Nancy’s recent award winning paper recently published in AMJ which explores how power can protect moral objectors in organizations, but shows that this protection operates differently for men versus women. We discuss how the importance o morality in organizational leaders and whether modern corporations are structured to be “amoral”.
