Question2: In bold

"Following the words of several of you the effect of any change initiative within an organisation is intertwined with managerial embracement and decision making. However, when ethics enter the equation the role of culture with respect to personal decision making is fortified and occupies a salient place (Vitell et al., 1993)."

Can you define the role of culture vis-a-vis ethical decision making in a project portfolio management context? Do you have any personal experience?
