Case 11-A: Distribution at Hewlett-PackardEven well-managed organizations don’t always work as efficiently and effectively as management would like. At Hewlett-Packard (HP), billions of dollars of products—from computers and diagnostic devices to toner cartridges—are shipped each year. Customer orders come in twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year. Nearly 16,000 different products are requested daily and must be shipped from six different warehouses—often located thirty or more miles apart. It often takes weeks to get the products into the customer’s hand. This is a serious problem with customers who have contracts with HP stating that deliveries are to be made in four hours or less. That means that from the time a customer calls the HP customer service line, they should have their replacement part and be back in operation within four hours—irrespective of where the customer is located! One characteristic that distinguishes an outstanding organization is its ability to know when…

CASE 2. Returning Unspent Money Jerome is running Children's Joy Foundation, Inc. to help street children. He receives a government grant of one million pesos for a project to teach out-of-school youths who live in the streets of their city. A year passes, Jerome managed to utilize only Php 500,000 from the grant. Despite his best efforts, he couldn’t convince many poor children or their families to join his program. As per the grant rules, Jerome has to return all the unspent money back to the government by the end of March 31st. But his colleague Raniel says: “If we honestly return the remaining Php 500,000 from the grant, the government officials may think that we are amateurs and ineffective in running the foundation, and they may substantially reduce our grant next year or even worse, they may not give us any project in the future. We should ask for the help of our chief accountant to manipulate our account books and reflect that majority of the grant was utilized for education.…

CASE: The Chipotle Mexican Grill In 1993, Steve Ells opened a burrito-and-taco restaurant in a Denver storefront, not far from the University of Denver campus and popular with students. He named it Chipotle Mexican Grill, after the dried pepper common in Mexican cooking. A trained chef and and graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Steve's idea was for Chipotle to be a cash cow to help him finance a "real" upscale restaurant. Chipotle, however, began branching out: first to several locations in an around Denver, then eventually nationwide. In 1998, McDonald's bought a 91% stake in Chipotle, this was followed by a 2006 initial public offering in which McDonald's retained 69% of the stock and 88% of voting rights. By the end of 2005, there were about 500 Chipotle outlets generating approximately $600 million in sales annually. Currently, about 15,000 people are employed by Chipotle. Steve Ells still serves as the chairman and CEO. What accounts for the success? For…
You may have seen the very popular Broadway show or movie Les Misérables, based on Victor Hugo’s epic nineteenthcentury French novel of the same name. The main character, Jean Valjean, steals a loaf of bread to feed his sister’sstarving family and is arrested and sent to prison. If we apply conventional reasoning and principles of law to his crime,Valjean genuinely is guilty as charged and we do not need to consider any extenuating circumstances. However, in aKantian ethical framework, we would take into account Valjean’s motives as well as his duty to treat his sister’s family asends in themselves who deserve to live. Valjean’s fate demonstrates what might occur when there is a gap between thelegal and the moral. Clearly, Valjean broke the law by stealing the bread. However, he acted morally by correcting awrong and possibly saving human lives. According to Kantian ethics, Valjean may have been ethical in stealing bread forhis family, particularly because the action was grounded in…

Many of Dr. Campbell’s patients are elderly people who qualify for federal Medicare benefits and state Medicaid benefits. Under the existing financing system, a doctor who treats a Medicare patient is required to submit a “Medicare Health Insurance Claim Form” (HCFA Form 1500). The doctor is required to certify that “the services shown on this form were medically indicated and necessary for the health of the patient and were personally rendered by me or were rendered incident to my professional service by my employees.” Claims Dr. Campbell submitted for his elderly patients ranged from $900 to $950, of which $530 to $680 were covered by the Medicare program.
