Multiple choice question:

You are managing a group that is considering the relocation of a major manufacturing facility. During a meeting, one of the team members raises a concern that moving a large employer will have a negative impact on the community in which the facility is currently located. Another team member responds that the company's economic goals should take priority. When the discussion stalls, the team looks to you for guidance. How should you respond?

• Ask the group to establish criteria for evaluating the decision that include both its social and economic impacts.
• Tell the group that personal judgment should not be used in business decision making.
• Ask the group to table the discussion about the impact to the community so that you can focus on the interests of the company first.
• Tell the group that the best way to make a decision that involves community issues is to assess whether any decision made would violate the law or any company regulations.
