WALL STREET
In this Hartwick Classic Film Leadership CaseĀ®, double-dealing in the stock market provides the backdrop for a profound inquiry into the ethics and behavior of individuals and organizations in a capitalistic society. Students observe the film's leading characters as they try to make as much money as they can, breaking the law regularly as they persue their financial goals. In the process, they squarely face the caricature of business leader as predator - a person for whom the challenge of a deal, and the desire to win, are everything. In this Darwinian world, they attempt to come to grips with the assertion, so unforgettably articulated in the film, that "greed... is good." In the process, students grapple with a full range of ethical questions, including whether or not an act is immoral or illegal when "nobody gets hurt" or when "everybody's doing it."
