Overview

Bowen McCoy, a senior manager at Morgan Stanley, and a group of mountaineers have been preparing over six years to climb the Himalayas. Thousands of dollars had been spent on this expedition.
At an extremely challenging part of the climb, the group comes upon a holy man – a Sadhu, who was dying from hypothermia. The group, and thereby each individual within the group, were faced with an unfortunate dilemma – to continue the climb and achieve their goals or carry the Sadhu two days back to a town to save the life of a stranger.

This one-day programme explores the challenges of personal ethics when applied to a group – when personal moral values clash with group norms and how organisational culture can impact the ethical climate of an entity.
