국문 초록

Recent research in strategic management has increasingly focused on how leaders and their personal characteristics influence organizations. However, less attention has been given to how organizations, in turn, shape the behavior of their top managers. This theoretical paper explores one such mechanism: the top manager’s internalization of ethical decision-making schemata promoted by the organization. I argue that through repeated practice of established procedures and expected responses, top managers adopt these schemata, which become cognitively accessible and influence decisions beyond the organizational setting. As a result, these internalized frameworks also shape ethical behavior personal lives. Implications for corporate social responsibility are discussed.
