  23. Get Started • Viktor, an operations manager at Principle Tools, sits brooding at his desk. He has learned over the weekend that Barbara, one of his most talented recent hires, lied about her education credentials when applying for the job in his department six months ago. Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  24. Get Started (Cont’d) • At a professional event on Saturday, Viktor had met Mike, a manager at Principle Tools' biggest competitor, A1Corp. When Viktor learned that Mike had worked with Barbara at A1Corp, he commented on her strong skills, adding, "I'm so impressed she earned an advanced business degree at City University while working full time." Startled, Mike replied, "That's strange. I remember when Barbara enrolled in her first MBA class two years ago. She loved the class, but couldn't complete it because it was too much work for her. She couldn't possibly have finished the degree already." Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  25. Get Started (Cont’d) • Back at his desk, Viktor wonders what to do. He's called City University, and verified that Barbara only completed three classes toward her MBA. Should he fire Barbara for misrepresenting her qualifications? This would send a message that Principle Tools values education and honesty. But Principle Tools would lose Barbara's talents at a time when it desperately needs them. Should he do nothing so Principle Tools can continue benefiting from Barbara's skills? If other employees discover that Barbara has kept her job despite lying, they might conclude that Principle Tools doesn't live its stated values. Cynicism and resentment could erode team productivity and morale. He checks Principle Tools' code of conduct, but it doesn't address this situation. • What would you do? Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  26. Answer Guideline • Use a disciplined framework and a structured three-phase approach to resolve such dilemma Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  31. Reviewing Ethical Decision-Making Frameworks (Cont’d) Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  32. Example of Assessment Paper • After learning. I will give you a paper of assessment question. Here is an example. Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  33. Example of Assessment • Ethics at Work • Assessment Question • 1. Mohammed wonders what to do about a dilemma involving information he might learn about a competing company. To make his decision, he consults his company’s code of conduct. • Utilitarian • Values-based • Rules-based • Correct choice. Managers who use rules-based frameworks follow specific guidelines set out by their company’s ethics or conduct programs or laws. The problem with such frameworks is that they don’t teach managers critical judgment skills needed to navigate right-versus-right situations. Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.

  34. Example of Assessment (Cont’d) • 2. In struggling to resolve an ethical dilemma related to expense accounting during business trips, Martine asks herself, “What course of action will produce the most good for the greatest number of people?” • Utilitarian • Correct choice. The belief that the most ethically sound decision is the one that produces the most good for the most people underlies the Utilitarian framework. The difficulty with this framework is that it’s too abstract. • b) Values-based • c) Rules-based Wichai Taechawattananan, Ph.D.
