Can a single person stop corruption in an organization?

[Nerd_Chris]

It would be a difficult task but with determination and preparation, I believe one man could pull it off

[Uyo ojo Grace]

Although one person cannot eradicate corruption inside an organization, their efforts may inspire others to band together and do so.

[Amy Toria]

It takes collective effort for corruption to be stopped in any system or organization. In any corrupt organization, there must be people who are benefiting from it. Therefore, if you try to stop corruption alone, your effort will be frustrated.

[Amy Toria]

A way for a single person to stop corruption in an organization is by working his or her way to the top. Only then can the person have the authority to fight corruption effectively.

[Amy Toria]

I think a single person can change corruption. But I think the person has to have the right mindset and immense strength to do so. The most important thing would be to not give up and try to make others see the wrong their doing.

The right mindset is the least of the things the person should worry about. Even with the right mindset, it is easy for one's effort to be wasted by people on authority.

[Amy Toria]

A single person cannot stop corruption in an organization but he can influence a few who can join him in fighting corruption which is always at a cost.

I find this to be true. There is strength in unity. If the person can form a group that is united for the course, the system will not be able to resist them for long.

[Amy Toria]

I don't think the person should give up. At some point, some other people with a living conscience will see the need to join in advocating for a change in the system.

How long will a person fight corruption solo? It won't take long for him or her to tire. A wise thing to do is to influence other people who would join in the movement.

Eliminating corruption entirely in an organization is not an easy task for a single human, but I think that if the right actions are taken, it will be possible. Steve tried his best to effect a significant amount of change.

[D Accurate_Reviewer]

Well, one person definitely can't stop corruption. If that person is not careful, he'd be dragged into corruption. But then, one person can always start the movement to stop corruption.

[Maria Ferreira Silva]

It coudl happen. But the necessary change comes from a grouo and not a single person. One could influence a group of people and therefore make a change.

[Okonobe Chioma Chukwuma]

A single person virtually never succeeds in eliminating corruption within an organization, but he or she can persuade a few to assist him in the costly battle against corruption.

[Chandelier Eden]

I believe it can happen. It takes one person refusing to apologize to start a war. Good or evil can spread if given the opportunity. Let's be the source for good, today .

[Ogunkoya Mayowa]

It's not easy for a single person to change a system, in the case of trying to change it, they may kill him. A single person can be doing good in the community but changing the system without anybody's support will be difficult.

[Black Gem]

A single person cannot stop corruption in Amy eociety or organization. But that person can steamroll the beginning of the end of that corruption, especially if others begin to see the good in what he's doing and join him.

Steve tried to do the right things and to make his colleagues do the right things at work. But he is a one-man-squad and his efforts are being frustrated. His life and job were even being threatened. In a case like this, do you think the person should just leave the system? Or can a single person stop the corruption in such a huge organization?

It is possible but requires time. First, one (Steve in this case) has to walk the talk. Second, they have to take on one person at a time. Once a good number of people have reformed, they will be able to go against an organization. Otherwise it's a wild goose chase.
