Hello Marcus,
Thank you for sharing your insight regarding ethical principles as they apply to Frank's situation! In light of the reading (Johnson, 2007), when considering Kidder's principles any of these could apply, butshort- versus long-term goalsandjustice versus mercyseem most closely aligned in my mind, andgreed--over ego and insecurities--seems especially culpable. What do you think? In the corporate world, responsible business men and women must consider their stakeholders and make decisions that are in their best interests, as well as the needs of employees, but when their own jobs are tied to financial outcomes, it can be very tempting to lean toward the influence of the bottom line.CLASS: How can individuals in management positions--or any of us, for that matter, in any position!--protect themselves from this selfish ambition
