| Title: |
Sometimes
You’ve Got To Break The Rules:
Prosocial Rule Breaking At Work |
| Author(s): |
Elizabeth

| Abstract
Text: |
Rule breaking has typically
been viewed as self-interested or malevolent behavior that
is organizationally harmful. This paper presents a broader
view of rule breaking by arguing that rule breaking is sometimes
driven by prosocial motives, or the desire to do something
positive. This paper not only builds an argument in support
of the idea that rule breaking is sometimes prosocial, but
also identifies several individual and organizational factors
that may help to explain this behavior. |
