3.2 Discussion: Borland Case Final Response

Getting Started

Discussions are an opportunity for you to demonstrate your

scholarly approach to the course materials and your ability to think

critically about the question and the material itself. To develop a

personal ethical framework, you must be able to synthesize all

sides to an ethical issue. In your final response, you will need to

choose a student who responded to your initial post in Workshop

Two and summarize your ethical position on the Borland Case.

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be

able to:

● Distinguish leadership actions that cast light from those that cast shadows.

● Evaluate organizations in terms of their ethical behavior.
