Case summary:

DE, the president and the CEO of RS Company had overstated his accomplishments in his resume eleven years back. DE had claimed that DE had earned a Bachelor of Science degree, when in fact DE had not. RS Company is a well-known electronics retailer and a publicly traded company. The company’s investors, creditors, employees, and others would not be able to trust, when the fact is known to them about the poor integrity of the company’s leader. Some are of the opinion that DE must be fired for presenting false documents and cheating the company for so many years while some are of the opinion that DE must not be fired, as DE had been serving the company for eleven long years.  Moreover, DE had earned the position of the CEO in the company through exceptional performance.

To ascertain: DE must be fired by RS Company or not.
