Describes a situation in which you, as the Plant Manager of a chemical factory, must try to find a way forward through a very difficult decision having international implications. This is a very complex issue, one that requires you to combine strategic thinking with ethical considerations. This is truly a “wrong versus wrong” decision making scenario of a type that you, as managers, are very likely to face one day. Specifically apply and discuss the ethical practices you will use to make this decision. Discuss and address your personal bias to ensure you stay away from personal bias in the ethical decision making process.
Part 2.
You are then to construct a formal business memo to the company owner with your recommendations for the plant. Once again focus on the ethics of the case and an ethical framework for your decision with just a brief summary of the facts and events. You must support your position and it cannot be based on opinion or emotion. — particularly the decision making protocols that are presented in the chapters. As you work through the case, consider whether there might be a “third way” out of the problem (preferably a way that is still ethical at its core).
