Part (c) Discuss, with regard to Imfundo’s decision to pursue the development of the computer-based learning course for the Law Society: (ii) Any actions Imfundo should take to mitigate any such concerns and risks.
ANSWER
To mitigate the ethical and business risks, Imfundo must take the following actions:
Develop Original Content: Do not use the copied material. Imfundo should create its own course content from scratch.
Negotiate a License: Alternatively, Imfundo can approach the original provider and negotiate a legal agreement to license their material for a fee.
Outsource or Partner: Imfundo could outsource the course delivery to the content providers or form a joint venture to share profits and risks.
Improve Governance: Implement new policies to prevent senior officials from encouraging unethical behavior. Any official who violates these policies should face disciplinary action.
Abandon Project: If the ethical and legal risks are too high, Imfundo should abandon the project entirely to protect the company's reputation and financial stability.
