The Recalcitrant Director at Byte Products Inc.: Corporate Legality versus Corporate Responsibility (Corporate Governance: Executive Leadership)
Read the Recalcitrant Director of Byte Products, Inc. which can be found in the Cases section of the textbook. James Elliot, The Chairman & CEO, has asked you to write a recommendation on getting a super-majority board vote to either a) use the plant in Planeville, b) license production for 3 years or c) do nothing and risk not keeping up with demand over the next 3 years. Your assignment – choose one of these three options and write a memo that James can share with the board in an attempt to sway them all your way instead of being a divided board as they are currently. Remember to apply concepts as applicable from what we’ve gone over in class and in the text book.
