| Summary: | After graduation, Isabella was thrilled to land a great entry-level position at Ground Zero, a vertically integrated coffee-supply enterprise. But she quickly became concerned about practices at the district to which she was assigned. She discovered numerous indicia of potential fraud or self-dealing by the district manager, William D. Brewster (Brewster). These concerns were complicated by the emotional appeal of the situation and the hardships suffered by the Brewster family. Students will be challenged on how to navigate this ethical dilemma. This fictional decision-point case study presents a practical and realistic ethics dilemma that allows students to gain experience applying the IMA Statement of Ethical Professional Practice and common theories of ethical thought. The ethical discussion is paired with an explanation of moral perspectives (i.e., utilitarianism, deontological ethics, moral rights, etc.), providing a framework to explore why certain decisions are right or wrong. |
