2) Had you been advising Mr. Cathy, what would you have counseled him? If I had the job of advising Mr. Cathy after making the comment he did I would’ve done everything I could to make him realize the impact his statement truly had. After he was aware of what it is he was doing to his and the company’s reputation I would’ve continued to discuss how he planned on handling the situation. I believe that things got out of control on both ends of the spectrum with the Appreciation Day and the Kiss-In. I believe it is important for people to stay true to who they are, their beliefs, and their values, but it is also just as important to be considerate, professional,
A good boss door is always open, whereas a bad boss is not pleasing to be around, always keeping their door closed. A good boss door is always open for communication in the job world, versus a bad boss keeping his door closed at all times. There are many characteristics of being a good boss, some of them who are a good boss are a good listener someone that can truly assess their employees’ needs and meet them. A good boss when confronted with a problem will not point fingers at one of their employees. They will absorb the blame on themselves, and the whole department.
At the start of the talk, he immediately acknowledged this curiosity and admitted right away of the mistakes he has committed. He showed everyone his prisoner’s card as well as his award for being the CFO of the year in 2000. He continued on talking about his work with Enron and how he became from being a famous and sought after CFO to an infamous criminal. He also cited examples where other companies may be doing the same mistakes he did in the past. What I like most about him, is he never tried to keep anything from the audience.
According to one account, whenever he accidentally gave a person the wrong amount of change, he would momentarily close up the shop to find the person and give them the correct amount of change, no matter how far the walk. Even his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln commented on his honesty: "Mr. Lincoln… is almost monomaniac on the subject of honesty." (2) His honesty also played a big part in his career as a politician. People would ask him to judge a competition or mediate a fight or argument. According Mr. Robert Rutledge of New Salem, "Lincoln's judgment was final in all that region of country.
But Mr. Fitweiler finds it hard to believe because everyone knows that Mr. Martin is a very efficient worker, never smokes, and never drink anything stronger than ginger ale. Mr. Martin tells Mr. Fitweiler that Miss Borrows suffers a psychological stress. Although she is telling the truth, nobody can believe her because they have known Mr. Martin for a long time and know his life style. Mr. Martin makes an incredibly wise plan to get Miss Barrows fired using imagination. He creates a scenario which relies on the aspect of the status his colleagues have put him into in order to solve his problem and achieve his desired
We believe that both the employee and the employer were unethical in this case because it illustrates a degree of moral intensity. The employee had a due diligence to the employer and should have brought his concerns to higher management instead of blogging it on a low profile under a false name. The employer had a due diligence to the employee and should have expressed their concern to the employee. The employer could of asked the employee if he could have deleted the blog or edit it so that the name of the employer was not mentioned. The degree of harm that could have happened to the company was not justified because when a search was made in an Internet search and the blog was not easily accessible in the public domain and this does not give the employer the just cause for termination of the employee.
Ethics can be influenced by one’s culture, background, and environment. Ethical behavior can be taught but that does not mean one is ethical. I believe how an individual conducts himself when faced with an ethical dilemma is what makes him who he is. An ethical dilemma is defined as “Situations concerning right and wrong where values are in conflict” either for the individual or for the organization (Trevino & Nelson, 2007, p. 3). Through these interactions people can learn and continue to grow in respect to their ethical beliefs.
How does Miller present Joe Keller as a tragic hero In All My Sons? Joe Keller is a man who loves and values his family very much and has sacrificed everything, including his honour, in his struggle to make his family prosperous. He is a self-made business man, who in spite of his humble beginning, has managed to work his way up in the business world and become a successful manufacturer. Joe perfectly fits into the category of tragic hero. Unlike Greek plays, where main characters were kings and nobles for they were thought to embody the whole community, modern tragedies present an average leader of a family, neither completely good nor completely evil, whose mistake leads to his self-destruction.

The above quote assumes that possession of knowledge carries an ethical responsibility in life. It is arguable that by simply knowing something makes you ethically responsible. Ethical responsibility can be defined as the action of men in attempt to correct a harmful and misleading situation as well as preventing harm from happening.
