Determine whether Morton-Thiokol used a Stockholder or a Stakeholder model when they made the decision, and argue for that position.
For this response, consider the Space Shuttle Challenger case and address the
following questions:
1. What factors do you think weighed most heavily in Morton-Thiokol's decision to okay
the Challenger launch?
2. Determine whether Morton-Thiokol used a Stockholder or a Stakeholder model
when they made the decision, and argue for that position.
3. What decision would you have made if you were a Morton-Thiokol manager in this
situation?
4. Is there anything that Roger Boisjoly could have done differently in his
circumstances?
5. Should he have been more loyal to his company when he was questioned by the
Rogers Commission?
If you're tempted to say that he should have kept his mouth shut in order to protect
Morton-Thiokol's reputation, you'll need to explain why their reputation deserves to be
protected.
If you think that they have some right to protect themselves from Boisjoly's whistle-
blowing (maybe by firing him) then you'll need to explain why they have a right to protect
themselves from someone who is telling the truth (which is often a good thing to do).
