Principles and Practice of Management
Case (20 Marks)
On July 28, 2009, a man walked up to
the counter of a branch of KeyBank in Seattle, pushed a black bag across the
counter, and ordered the teller to hand over money. Jim Nicholson (Nicholson),
the 30-year-old bank teller who had worked for the bank for more than two
years, stood up to the man and demanded to see the weapon. On July 30, 2009, an
employee of KeyBank found himself fired from his job two days after he had
prevented an attempted robbery at the bank by confronting the would-be-robber
and overpowering him.
Answer
the following question.
Q1.
Jim Nicholson was able to prevent the robbery and save the people in the bank
from potential harm. Do you think the end justified the means in this case -
did Nicholson do the right thing in confronting the would-be bank robber?
Q2.
Did KeyBank do the right thing in firing Jim Nicholson? Would a warning or
suspension have been better disciplinary action?
