2) Read the following ethical dilemma, and answer the following You work for one division of a company, but another division wants you to assist them for a period of a year. Your home division agrees to the one-year transfer, and if you do it, they will give you a good promotion upon your return, dependent on your performance during your new assignment. This promotion will mean an increase in salary and it will allow you to keep your health benefits, which is important to you because your daughter is very sick with a chronic disease. Losing health benefits will result in financial ruin. While working for the new division for ten months, the third-in-line for the top management position comes up to you and asks you to write disparaging letters about the director and deputy director of that division. You say you have no knowledge of any wrong-doing on their part, but he threatens you with a bad review to your home division that may cost you your promotion, and even your job and health benefits. -Real ethical dilemma from an industry worker with over 30 years experience

Q2.a Do you think whistleblowing is appropriate for this case? If so what kind (remember 2 types, 2 subgroups). If not, what do you think you could do instead?

Q2.b Do you think your handling of this case would change if you didnt have a sick daughter? Why or why not.

Q2.c Do you think that ethical decisions you make would change based on your life circumstances (ie like the sick daughter in this story)? Do you think personal circumstances need to be considered for ethical decisions?
