AFFYMETRIX, INC.: USING CORPORATE ETHICS ADVICE11This case study was written by Margaret L. Eaton based on interviews with three Affymetrix employees and five ethics advisors in July and August 2003. Two of the interviews were conducted with David Finegold, who also gave valuable assistance in editing this case study, as did Abdallah Daar. This case study is one in a series produced under grants funded by The Seaver Institute and Genome Canada to study models for ensuring informed ethical decision making in bioscience firms. Grateful appreciation is extended to all those who participated and assisted, especially to Affymetrix's Katie Tillman Buck, without whose efforts this case study could not have been written.

<span>Over the past decade, issues surrounding corporate ethics and the ethical decision making of individuals in business have been a major focus in the popular press, academic research and curriculum revision efforts in business schools. One of the quandaries faced throughout these efforts is how to enable an individual to make ethical decisions In this paper, a model is proposed that focuses on organizational culture as the means by which to provide an environment that fosters ethical decision making by the organizations members. A four-stage model for understanding the current ethical state of organizations is formulated. Subsequently, the focus shifts to the underlying factors and situations that may intentionally or unintentionally exist and that may cause an organization to progress to a higher stage or regress to a lower stage.</span>

Perceptions Of Education

Conversations about ethical decision-making exist in a climate of misinformation within social and political forums. The issue of ethical decision-making in the context of educational leadership within a school environment has not been recently investigated. The purpose of this qualitative exploratory case study was to examine the perceptions of education leaders who observed the processes faculty employed when ethical decision-making commenced throughout the school day. Data was collected during interviews with education leaders who answered semi-structured, open-ended questions. The findings led the leaders to self-reflect, redefining their roles as authentic leaders and a gaining a deeper understanding of school culture, thus helping create systemic change.
