Can a single person stop corruption in an organization?

No, I do not think the person should just leave the system. That person, despite being the only one, can stop the corruption in such a huge organization. They just have to do a lot of planning.

It will be a difficult thing to do considering the numerous opposition. But, I believe it's possible

I don't think one person is enough to change a corrupt organization. But if there are a few people like Steve in the same organization then it would be easier.

A single person can't succeed alone. He/she can only do so if he gathers enough crowd.

Alone, I don't think he would achieve much, there's strength in numbers. He might have to leave or join them or remain neutral.

Yes,i do think a single person can stop corruption.
Biblically,it is possible because,
It is said that "The heart of a king is in the hands of the Lord" so hence,it is possible in this aspect.
Then, ordinarily or literally speaking,it is still possible.
it may take a while though but,I believe that when one does the right thing continuously,there is bound to be an admiration from one or two person's.
Such little admiration's from these few person's may begin to influence others and then, before you know,it could even influence all.
This thus can spite up changes.

No, I don't think so. Usually people who have a different opinion than the rest of group are being taken care of in order not to cause any problems anymore

It's difficult for a single person to stop corruption in any organisation. Obviously, Steve couldn't do it alone and that was the reason he involved Sutton and agent Adams after he got the necessary evidence he needed for the state to prosecute the bad cops.

No, one person can not cause significant change on their own. It is unfortunate that one has to participate in underhanded activities in order to gain the power and support necessary to gear significant change. Ultimately, someone stands to gain even from the noblest of causes, which means fighting one form of corruption can perpetuate another form. So it might be best to just leave the system be.

I think a single person can change an organization and finish corruption in it if he plays his cards right and gather the people who he trusts.

That depends on how much power that person holds in that organization otherwise I don't think one man can change anything

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?

This novel only shows what prespired after Steve exposed the corruption happening at the police department. I am assuming that, like in reality, much didn't change because corruption was at the core of the police force. People with power think that they are above certain rules, and I doubt that that will change anytime soon.

It is highly unlikely that a single person can stop corrosion. Corruption has been around for so long that it has spread all throughout the government. Even Steve struggled a lot when he was fighting alone and was only able to make a noticeable change after he got some much needed support.

Yes, a single person can stop corruption in an organization. It's true that Steve and Durk are fictional characters, but their cause is realistic. But whoever wants to try that must be morally upright and consistent; it will take a lot of courage to be a flicker of light in the darkness without being overwhelmed.

You know what, that is really an interesting question. My response would be no. It depends if you are in a position of power, because then the citizenz of the country could vote for you and some things may change. Look up Maia Sandu, presid et of Moldova, that may tell you something.
