CEOs and white-collar crimea convenience perspective /[electronic resource] :by Petter Gottschalk. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - vii, 158 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1. Introduction -- 2. Chief Executive Officers -- 3. White-Collar Criminals -- 4. Convenient Financial Motive -- 5. Convenient Organizational Opportunity -- 6. Convenient Deviant Behavior -- 7. CEO Blame Games -- 8. Conclusion.

This book aims to bridge the gap between general CEO research, which is traditionally focused on positive aspects of leadership, and lesser understood research into CEO misconduct and crime. Gottschalk introduces convenience theory as an integrated explanation for CEO involvement in white-collar crime. The chief executive officer is a unique position within an organization in terms of power and influence, role and behavior, compensation and benefits, and conflict and competition. The convenience perspective suggests that motivation (personal and organizational goals), opportunity (offense and concealment in an organizational context), as well as behavior (lack of control and neutralization of guilt) make financial crime a convenient option to avoid threats and to exploit opportunities. A thorough and methodical study, this book will be of special interest to scholars of corporate social responsibility and criminological theory.
