摘要

Justifying unethical selling practices is alarmingly prevalent among today's sales force. At the heart of this problem are salespeople that do not follow procedures, err in ethical judgment, and attempt to justify unethical behavior with (what they feel are valid) excuses (Serviere-Munoz and Mallin 2013). The sales performance literature attributes selling behavior, in part, to how salespeople view their role (Churchill, Ford, and Walker 1985). In the face of confusing and conflicting roles, salespeople form negative role perceptions, are more likely to exhibit poor ethical judgement and engage in unethical practices that negatively impact their sales organization (Luo and Kumar 2013). Interpreting whether a particular sales behavior is ethical or not is often a matter of perspective and to mentally compensate, salespeople often turn to attributions to justify their acts. Attributions such as "no one was harmed by my actions" or "I did this to pay the bills/ feed my family" are all too common conversations between a salesperson and sales manager. These phrases exemplify what researchers have deemed neutralization techniques (Sykes and Matza 1957) and serve as means for salespeople to attribute the cause of their unethical behaviors to either internal or external forces.
