27th District Council Meeting

The 27th District Council Meeting was held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. We were supposed to have it in the newly renovated La Salle Hall in the old Provincialate at Petaling Jaya. Unfortunately, the Hall was not yet ready and sadly, we had to settle for a hotel in the city. We had a productive four days of meetings. Highlights of the discussion were the presentation of the lawyers and Mr. Michael Lau on the tax case of the Malaysian Brothers; various country reports; personnel movements; and the Chapter of First Vows for the Novices.

For each night, from arrival to departure, we were hosted by Ms. Irene Tan and the Old Boys of Malaysia. We were hosted by a group of around 20 old boys on Saturday night for Chinese Banquet. The Brothers are certainly well loved (and fed) in Malaysia.

Thank you to Brs. Paul and Andrew for the preparations! (Even if the Hall at PJ was not ready we still managed.)

Research: How One Bad Employee Can Corrupt a Whole Team

One bad apple, the saying goes, can ruin the bunch. So, too, with employees.

Our research on the contagiousness of employee fraud tells us that even your most honest employees become more likely to commit misconduct if they work alongside a dishonest individual. And while it would be nice to think that the honest employees would prompt the dishonest employees to better choices, that’s rarely the case.

Among co-workers, it appears easier to learn bad behavior than good. For managers, it is important to realize that the costs of a problematic employee

go beyond the direct effects of that employee’s actions — bad behaviors of one employee spill over into the behaviors of other employees through peer effects. By under-appreciating these spillover effects, a few malignant employees can infect an otherwise healthy corporate culture…

We found that financial advisors are 37% more likely to commit misconduct if they encounter a new co-worker with a history of misconduct. This result implies that misconduct has a social multiplier of 1.59 — meaning that, on average, each case of misconduct results in an additional 0.59 cases of misconduct through peer effects.
