1. In the case study, Vandivier found his professional code of conduct, moral standards, and legal standards came into conflict with one another. Determine whether you believe Vandivier did the right thing or not, and either challenge or support his decision to write the qualification report.

2. Organizations often encourage their members to conform to certain norms and to accept policies and goals as their own. This can sometimes cause individuals to sacrifice their integrity and to fail to see themselves as morally responsible for their actions. Identify two instances in the case study in which employees at Goodrich succumbed to the pressures of conformity. Consider the level at which both groupthink and diffusion of responsibility affected the actions of those involved in the A7D affair, and illustrate how an employee at the company might have rationalized his or her decision to conform.
