Suppose High Brow Cat Kennels which has sold over 50 franchises,
has decided to purge its top and middle managers. Some managers charged with
deciding who to terminate might decide to keep the subordinates they like, and
who are obedient to them, rather than the ones who are difficult, unskilled, or
the best performers. They might decide to lay off the most highly paid
subordinates even if they are high performers. As the head of the task force
who has investigated this situation, write a memo to Dr. Singh, CEO, of the
ethical issues involved in changing the hierarchy and its possible effects on
stakeholders. Give a solution to this problem.
