- Lyft launched its IPO on April 1st 2019 with a share price of $72. Before the IPO, Lyft’s board of directors was likely trying to decide how to compensate CEO Logan Green to provide an incentive for him to increase the firm’s performance and share price after it went public. Let’s say the board was considering two possibilities such that they were deciding between providing one million dollars worth of shares of the firm stock at $72 per share or one million dollars worth of call options with a strike price of $72 and a maturity and vesting date one year after the IPO. To keep things simple, let’s say CEO Logan Green can choose between providing two levels of effort: regular effort or high effort. He has been exerting regular effort all along. He could switch to high effort which would be much more costly for him as he would have to work even longer hours, but the extra effort would likely result in better performance for the firm.

According to Bagley in The Ethical Leader's Decision Tree, directors' obligation is to manage the corporation "for the best interests of the corporation", which might not be “maximizing shareholder value" all the time. According to Bagley in The Ethical Leader's Decision Tree, when there is no established ethics policy, directors can turn to their company values statement for guidance about what constitutes ethical business behavior. According to Epley and Kumar in How to Design an Ethical Organization, a better way to manage ethics is to design workplace context that encourage good behavior. Keeping prosocial values top of mind for employees as they make decisions will reduce the likelihood of transgressions. According to Epley and Kumar in How to Design an Ethical Organization, the "tone at the top" is a much more significant driver of employees' behavior than "tone in the middle".arrow_forward
- In the 1970s, Nestle the Swiss based MNC manufacturer and distributor of food and beverage products, was accused of ‘hooking’ mothers of Africa onto the use of infant formula powdered milk for their babies rather than mothers’ breast milk. Given the powder had to be mixed with water and African water was impure many babies died. The structure of the Nestle organisation in Africa contained separate product, marketing and sales functions. It was a standalone business entity. So, the sales and product executives in Switzerland were not aware that the infant powdered milk was being ‘mis-sold’ and ‘mis-represented’ leading to dead African babies. Many commentators believed that it was the structure of the African business that was to blame as it had no oversight from Switzerland. It is fair to say that Nestle made significant and profound changes to its governance structure after this event. 1. Explain what you believe could have been lacking in the Nestle Africa business.
