To Go Or to Stay

Résumé du livre

"A buyer trainee for a big-box retail chain was successfully promoted over a short period of time to an apparel buyer of several high volume buying areas. Her success continued, even with a change in the economy and consumer expenditures declining, but the buyer started to lose the satisfaction for her job she held. Her business still did fairly well; however, others weren't and they were told by their superiors to start cancelling vendor orders. Soon, the buyer's areas also started slowing in sales and she was also directed to cancel orders. This superior's directive bothered the buyer as she felt that it was unethical, and she was concerned about the implications of the cancellation of orders. She had established a good working relationship with her vendors, and she understood how important her orders were to them. In addition, she felt that they would suffer from the loss of business and that she might want to buy from them again in the future. If she didn't cancel orders she would lose her job. The buyer had a serious decision to make and was caught between her personal ethics and conscience and her superior's directive and corporate ethics."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
