Abstract
Wells Fargo bank had a major ethical dilemma in 2016 where employees created hundreds of thousands of fake accounts to meet quotas. This is an example of unethical behavior within the egoism theological framework. When employees act unethically it can be out of self-interest. On the other hand, how do managers and supervisors influence unethical behavior by setting unrealistic goals for employees. The type of management that leads a company can influence whether employees act unethically or not. The two leadership types that can influence the work environment are translational and transactional leaders.
