Ethics, Operation Management

Assignment Help:
An airplane manufacturer has spent a great deal of money developing a new airplane. The company badly needs cash because it is financially overextended.

The result will be disastrous not only for the workers but also for the town in which they live. The president of the company has been trying to interest the government of a foreign country in a large purchase. He learns that one of the key governmental ministers in charge of making the final decision is heavily in debt because of gambling. He quietly contacts the minister and offers him $1 million in cash if he awards the contract for five planes to his firm. The money is paid and the contract is awarded.2. Discuss how different ethicists would react to the story given above
