Imagine you are the director of global business development for a large Swedish engineering company that wants to win a contract to build roads in Kenya, a project funded by the World Bank. You need to develop a relationship with the Ministry of Transportation in Kenya. Using what you learned in this course, discuss how you would handle a situation in which your firm wants to win the contract but has been directly asked for a bribe by a local official in charge of the decision making. Imagine that your competitors are from other countries, some of which are less concerned about the ethics of gift giving. Given what you have read in this course, how can you still win business in such a situation? What would you advise your senior management?

    Answer: I would reject his demand for bribe straight away and i will recommend senior management to protect business ethics at all cost.

    Explanation: first of all i would not accept the demand of bribe from the official and would try to report this corruption to the concerned authorities. I would try to pressure the authorities to take strict actions against the official and to make the process to be fair and honest in every way.

    I as a representative of my company would recommend senior management to take hands off from the project until appropriate actions are taken by the authority as getting into unethical actions might result in problems in future.
