SCANDAL HITS CORPORTATE ROLE MODELS IBM, MCKINSEY
-Ritsuko Ando, 10/16/09, Reuters
I haven't kept up with this blog, but I felt I needed to post about the recent scandal regarding the Galleon Hedge Fund manager, billionaire Raj Rajaratnam, IBM's Robert Moffat, and others.
It is a question of ethics, and a question of leadership. These guys might not be sports stars, but as business leaders, their actions have paved the way for thousands of B-School graduates to follow. In good financial times, I suppose that much of this went un-noticed.
It is happening in government, politics, and business, and it must be halted.
I came across and article that sheds light on this problem, written by psychologists Charles Shinaver, Ph.D. It was written last year. Many of Shinaver's comments still hold true.

Economic Sounds and Sights is my on-line filing cabinet for resources and links related to our current economic crisis. (I am not an economist, and I do not belong to a political party.)In my quest to become a better-informed citizen, I know that I have much to learn. This blog is my way of sharing what I discover with others. I'd like to take this information to the next level, but I can't do this alone.
My vision? A collaborative multimedia, multi-modal interactive time-line might help us to understand the complex, interrelated factors and events more effectively. It would provide an opportunity for the inquisitive to view things from a broad perspective, and also explore things in rich detail. Ideally, the time-line would support multi-touch, multi-user interaction on larger displays and interactive whiteboards.
I welcome your comments and links.
