The cofounders/advisers at Maynard Leigh Associate (MLA), an HR consultancy organization based in UK and India are in a dilemma regarding the best way to react to a few ethical dilemmas. In the first case, a client has been hired by MLA to deliver a succession of workshops to a group of employees who definitely do not want any help of this type, and also the workshop facilitator believes its money is being wasted by the client.
Maynard Leigh Associates Consultantpreneurs' Dilemma of Purpose or Profit Case Study Solution
In the 2nd case, the CEO of a local IT giant has hired MLA to host a workshop that would brainstorm methods to eradicate all roadblocks to his organization's success, but during the delivery of this workshop, the consultants realized that the biggest roadblock to the organization's success was the CEO himself. Should the partners be open with risk damaging a successful business relationship and the client about their findings, or should they just remain silent on the issue and pocket their fee. What would be the impact of their decision on the future of their business? Importantly, they should make a decision that carries on the corporate values of MLA.
