The likelihood of any organism’s survival in a Darwinian environment, where such survival is allocated only to the fittest and most capable of adapting, is ultimately determined by that organism’s capability to act in its own best interests. The capacity of that organism to act not only upon those best interests but to also act swiftly and accurately becomes more difficult as the decisionmaking process of the organism becomes more complex. In the brutally Darwinian environment of the open market, the complexity of corporate decision-making is often such that the best interests of the corporate entity as an organism can be derailed by self-destructive processes such as groupthink and unethical conduct that may destroy the corporate organism’s ability to survive. This white paper examines how the failure to structure equitable relationships, establish ethical foundations for action and correct blinding group think led to the catastrophic death of a specific corporate organism. |
