Q Based upon your review of the textbook readings, post a 450-word (minimum) synopsis of your understanding of the material. This post should 1) demonstrate understanding of the ethical issues reviewed. Following your synopsis of the chapter material, 2) incorporate a practical application of the material by responding to questions in Reading 9.2. In your posting, it is important that you highlight any questions you have about the material. The instructor will review the postings for understanding of the material and respond to questions you may have. 1. What made the engineers and executives want the Lockheed documents and then use them? Do you have some ideas for lines for your credo that come from seeing what happened with the engineers and the executives who were complicit? 2. List the long-term costs and consequences of Boeing’s use of the documents. Consider others you may see that are not called out in the case. 3. Do you think the fact that Boeing continued to receive contracts is evidence that ethics don’t matter? 4. One analyst has said that the problem with Boeing is that it cannot admit that the problems were internal but always seeks to blame the problems on a “few bad apples.” Is this statement valid? 5. List the categories of ethical breaches that you see in this scenario.
