Doing the Right Entrepreneurial Thing: Ethical Decision Making Under Uncertainty Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • Are entrepreneurs more or less ethical than other business agents? This study finds that complex and novel decision settings yield biases that render entrepreneurs to have lower ethical judgment than that of managers. Such a finding raises important questions about the moral expectations that society places on entrepreneurs.
