Behavioral modeling refers to employees observing and imitating the behaviors of other employees. In this case, if employees witness their colleagues engaging in counterproductive behaviors without being punished, they may be more likely to do the same. Thus, the use of behavioral modeling may not always result in positive outcomes for the organization.
