Professor I
Professor Warren’s main contribution to scholarship lies in advancing our understanding of why deviance arises in business settings, how to evaluate it, and how to deter destructive deviance while promoting constructive deviance. She builds upon both normative and descriptive theory and conducts quantitative as well as qualitative research on sanctioning systems, ethics training, and ethical leadership. Her field work includes in-depth studies of auto insurance fraud, trading on financial exchanges, banking and external auditing. Her research appears in Academy of Management Review, Accounting and the Public Interest, Business and Professional Ethics Journal, Business and Society, Business Ethics Quarterly, Business & Society Review, Group Decision & Negotiation, Journal of Business Ethics, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Organization Science, and Research in Organizational Behavior. Professor Warren teaches undergraduate, MBA and doctoral courses in business ethics. She is Senior Fellow of the Zicklin Center for Business Ethics Research at The Wharton School and Research Fellow of Rutgers’ Institute for Ethical Leadership. She also serves on the Board of Directors for the Society for Business Ethics and the editorial board of Business Ethics Quarterly. She received an M.A. and Ph.D. from The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania and a B.S. from Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ.
