Question: 1.Identification of three stances that People Movements can perceive towards CSR . 2.Identification of stages of moral development of Tim depended upon Provided Iformation. 3.Explanation of the process of encouraging ethical behaviour by the management of People Movements . 4. Discussion of the Ethical Issues that will Affect the Organisational Sustainability. Answer: 1. As People Movement is a famous recruitment company that performs in the competitive market of Auckland NZ, therefore it is the role and responsibility of every manager to maintain an appropriate Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) within the organisation. The first stance People Movement can take to follow CSR with continuation of the given commitment to the employees in order to behave in ethical manner for contributing to the gradual development of economic condition of this company. The second stance includes that this company can enhance the accountability and obligation to the society (Brammer, Jackson Matten, 2012). However, the final stance can be taken by People Movement is to improve the quality of services while recruiting the desired candidates. As People Movement is going through a crisis because of the gradual process of resignation of the managers, therefore, the higher management of this company should follow an appropriate Corporate Social Responsibility. People Movement can protect the self-interest of every team manager of this company; therefore, it would be easy for them to perform in better manner within the organisation. There are constant conflicts among the managers, which force them to resign from the company. Even Tim creates a completely new company with few of his colleagues from People Movement after resigning. There were arguments from some members of the company, as Tim did not approach them to join the new team. This behaviour of Tim is opposite against maintaining the rules of CSR. 2. Tim is the manager of the recruitment team of People Movement; therefore, this individual should have gone through various stages of moral development. During the crisis of the company, Tim fails to perform own role and responsibility and resigns from People Movement in order to start own recruitment firm (Jo Harjoto, 2012). On a meeting with Bronwyn, the chief operating officer of People Movement, there was a decision in between Tim and Bronwyn about the development of software, which may help to increase the economic advantages of the company. The moral development of Tim has been enhanced while performing the assigned responsibilities in People Movement. 3. As People Movement encounters with crisis, therefore, the management of this company should encourage the employees with a proper process of reward giving for ethical behaviour. The management of this company should value every suggestion of the employees during crisis period and incorporate the ethical standards in order to review the performance of every employee. Even the management of People Movement should understand and promote the basic values of every employee such as wisdom, kindness, justice, self-control and integrity. As ethical behaviour of the employee and management can help an organisation to attain the desired goal of the organisation, therefore, it is important for the management of People Movement to concentrate on encouraging the ethical behaviour of employees. According to Kim, Park Wier (2012) the value of maintaining self-control help an employee of an organisation provide adequate motivation for performing tasks in suitable manner. People Movement should provide effective training to the employees in order to teach them about the proper ethical behaviour within an organisation. Even the higher management of the concerned company should implement completely new policies for preventing and reducing unethical behaviour. The top management of People Movement should improve the code of ethics for promoting the basic ethical behaviour among every employee. It also helps them to know in detailed manner about the ethical rules, regulations and expectations of the organisation. As recruiting manager Tim has resigned from the assigned designation, therefore, the management should make other manager of this organisation a role model for the other employees, as they would guide the employees to promote effective ethical behaviour. 4.Tim, the recruitment manager of People Movement has resigned from the company and it is breaching of conduct, which can affect the organisational sustainability. Frisch Huppenbauer (2014) have mentioned that the identity of this organisation fails to distinguish the values, missions and vision. Organisational Sustainability also depends upon the messages, which an organisation provides to its clients and to the market. In this present case study, six managers resigned from People Movement along with Tim, which provides an inaccurate message to its clients and can affect the organisational sustainability. Tim and Bronwyn took decisions about software development without other managers, which also can affect the organisational sustainability of People Movement.
