When a new international airport is being planned, when a doctor recommends a treatment to a patient, when political leaders and society want to ensure reliable energy supplies for the future, when a company wants to offer tailor-made service solutions, when the development of innovative products demands the creativity, experience and dedication of a wide range of experts, that’s when tough decisions have to be made – far-reaching decisions based on a strong sense of responsibility. The success of our integrated technology company rests not only on our technological excellence, power of innovation and financial strength but also on our commitment to responsibility – a commitment that’s made us a strong partner of trust to people all around the world for 165 years.

    Lockheed Martin Organizational Environment

    As one of the only major defense contractors, one would think that Lockheed Martin has a different organizational culture and environment than most companies, but in reality they run like any company would but in a unique industry. They specialize in four different business segments including Aeronautics, Space Systems, Electronic Systems, and Integrated Systems and Global Solutions. Their vision statement says, “Powered by Innovation, Guided by Integrity, We Help Our Customers Achieve Their Most Challenging Goals”.

    To Spy Or Not To Spy

    “All things are possible with the right technology!” said Helmut Schwartz, the recently appointed CEO of Globe Alive, Inc. (GAI), an Edmonton-based software company. Speaking at a monthly management meeting of GAI executives, Schwartz continued. “With the right technology in our organization, we can facilitate efficient communication between global partners, discern in-bound supply chain elements from out-bound shipments, expedite customer orders in a timely manner, electronically transfer funds around the world, and monitor employees to ensure they are being productive. And that list is by no means exhaustive. Believe me when I say, all things are possible with the right technology. When I shared that vision with the executive interview panel a few months ago, I was being sincere. I believed it then and I believe it now. This philosophy is the driving force behind everything I do here at GAI and I strongly suggest it become your philosophy as well so that together we can build a brighter stronger future for this organization!”…

    Hewlett Packard's Unethical Investigation

    The fourth amendment to the United States constitution tells us that ”the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated”. In other words, it is illegal for persons to go through your things without your consent or knowledge. This is fairly straightforward and simple, right? Not exactly! Patricia Dunn was accused of hiring private investigators to investigate members of the board of Hewlett Packard. These investigators used a technique known as pretexting, a practice of getting your personal information under false pretenses (Federal Trade Commission, 2008). In this case the investigators called the phone company used by each of the board members, impersonated the board member, and gave personal information to gain access to the board members’ phone records. Patricia Dunn was told this was legal but didn’t seem to look at the ethical aspect of it. Should she have been forced to resign? My answer to this question is yes! The Hewlett Packard web site states the following:…

    Organizational Change

    The first eighteen months for Techtron had been intense. The founders had handpicked individuals from their former employers who had the potential to understand the development of new competi­tive products and who were willing to risk working in a start-up environment. The sixty individuals who had joined Techtron at the encouragement of the four founders all knew the risks were high, but if Techtron was successful the rewards would exceed anything they could hope for from their former employers. None of the initial employees, including the founders, had anticipated the pressure of working in a new organization or attempting to bring products to market with only a skeleton staff. All of their collective experience had been in established organizations. A culture of hard work, risk taking, and living on the edge quickly emerged.…

    On Leadership and Core Values

    Our goal is to be a leader and innovator in the field of producing leaders and innovators. This requires our organization, from CEO to groundskeepers, to engage continuously in a process of honest self-evaluation; critical analysis; creative and courageous experimentation in problem-solving; and relentless application of lessons-learned in our operational duties, pedagogy, and personal relationships. It requires us, also, to be fair, broad-minded, and inclusive at all times, flexible in our approaches, willing to experiment—even to fail—so long as failures are but steps in a refining process. As we recognize our mutual-interdependence, we resolve to be considerate and supportive of one another, for our ultimate success is not built on personality, but cooperation, and our greatest strength lies, not in our individual talents, but in the sum of our collective efforts.…
