Two managers at Minimum Effort, Inc. are discussing the latest e-mail they have received.
Jimmy Joe's reaction is simply to say: "All this thing needs to say, as far as I'm concerned,
is if you don't get busted for it, you're innocent. If you do get caught, you pay the price." His
friend, Eddie, has a very different idea. His response is: "I believe, however, that every
individual should take personal responsibility for their behavior. I would like for our
organization to integrate that idea into everything we do here at work." The email they are
reading concerns how decisions are evaluated on the basis of right and wrong at their
company.

a. associate-based
b. compliance-based
c. integrity-based
d. systems-based
e. consensus-based
