A colleague at work, Randall, has always been thin. Recently, however, she appears emaciated. She doesn't eat at lunch time, insisting she'll "grab something" later. She's constantly running, instead, or otherwise working out in the corporate gym. Last week, she passed out after running up the stairs instead of taking the elevator. She seems distracted and has been making mistakes, which reflect on the department as a whole.

You're concerned about Randall's health, and suspect that she may be suffering from an eating disorder, anorexia, perhaps, and/or bulimia. When you try to discuss the matter with her, she angrily denies that she has an eating disorder. She insists that you never bring it up again and threatens to sue you if you discuss the matter with anyone else. She demands that you respect her right to privacy. Your immediate supervisor seems uninterested in any "personal" matters. She has made it clear that as far as she is concerned, LMN Corp. concerns itself only with LMN Corp. business, and what you do on your time, is your business.

What do you do? Why?

In answering this question, you will want to identify the ethical issues that are presented by this fact scenario, as well as to think through how those issues would be addressed under Kant's deontological ethical theory, the Utilitarian teleological theory, and under Virtue Ethics - which is teleological, but which looks at a different telos or end goal than does Utilitarianism. Please also incorporate any new ideas you have encountered in this week's course materials about ethical leadership, corporate ethics and corporate culture.
