ABSTRACT

Phase I — Situation You are the head of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). Your organization is charged with hosting the Olympic Games and has a role in picking the host city for the upcoming Olympics (IOC, 2012). The IOC has been managing the Olympics since 1894 and has its headquarters located in Switzerland (IOC, 2012). You have just been notified that one of your former member’s daughters has been receiving money to attend American University from the Salt Lake Olympic Organizing Committee (SLOC) (Mallon, 2000). These payments began when Salt Lake City was in the running to host the winter Olympic Games for 2002 (Mallon, 2000). This could lead to more of your committee members being implicated for bribery. What actions do you propose to take?
