Abstract
La integridad corporativa es percibida hoy por hoy como un activo valioso en la vida
de las empresas, con impacto relevante en el logro de los objetivos estratégicos. Así, la
integridad asume progresivamente un rol vital en el desarrollo y supervivencia de las
empresas. Se ha afirmado muy gráficamente que, si se pierde la integridad, luego la empresa
no tiene más que perder. Por todo ello, se le reconoce también como un factor imprescindible
para el desarrollo de las organizaciones, sociedades y naciones. Este trabajo ensaya una
conceptualización de la integridad corporativa basándose en los aportes de la literatura. Allí
se encuentra que la integridad empresarial generalmente incluye un supuesto ético, pero
también otros factores. Así, integridad no es necesariamente antónimo de corrupción.
También existen posturas puramente positivas, que ven la integridad como coherencia entre
lo que se piensa, se dice y se realiza, esto es, sin una consideración de la ética como un
componente intrínseco de la integridad.
A partir de la conceptualización de integridad empresarial propuesta en la tesis, se
adopta una perspectiva de análisis enfocada en el riesgo, recurriendo a la norma internacional
ISO 31000:2018, que establece directrices sobre la gestión del riesgo.
La investigación finaliza con la formulación de un instrumento de autoevaluación
diagnóstica sobre integridad corporativa, en forma de cuestionario, organizado en torno a
siete componentes identificados en la revisión de literatura, y comprende un número
adecuado de preguntas a ser respondidas en la escala de Likert. Su aplicación proveerá al
CEO, gerente general y otros tomadores de decisiones con información relevante para medir
el nivel de exposición al riesgo de cometer faltas de integridad que afronta la organización. El
propósito final del trabajo es contribuir con la promoción de la integridad corporativa como
una dimensión valiosa, intangible e imprescindible de las organizaciones.
Corporate integrity is today perceived by society as a valuable asset in the life of companies, with a relevant impact on the achievement of strategic objectives. Thus, integrity progressively assumes a vital role in the development and survival of companies. It has been very graphically stated that if integrity is lost, then the company has nothing more to lose. Therefore, it is also recognized as an essential factor for the development of organizations, societies and nations. This work tests a conceptualization of corporate integrity based on contributions from the literature, where it is found that business integrity generally includes an ethical assumption, but also other factors. Thus, integrity is not necessarily the antonym of corruption. There are also purely positive positions, which see integrity as coherence between what is thought, said and done, that is, without a consideration of ethics as an intrinsic component of integrity. Based on the conceptualization of business integrity proposed in the thesis, an analysis perspective focused on risk is adopted, resorting to ISO 31000: 2018, an international norm and standard that establishes guidelines on risk management. The research ends with the formulation of a diagnostic self-assessment instrument on corporate integrity, in the form of a questionnaire, organized around seven components identified in the literature review, and includes a considerable number of questions to be answered on the Likert scale. Its application will provide the CEO and other decision makers with relevant information to measure the level of exposure to integrity risk faced by the company. The ultimate purpose of the work is to contribute to the promotion of corporate integrity as a valuable, intangible, and essential dimension of companies.
