Product Details

The COE at MOEX learns from the vice president of Strategic Human Resources exactly how people of color feel they are being treated under his leadership. Employee Jeri Caldwell has informed this vice president that she is considering filing discrimination charges against MOEX, based upon her not being promoted again. This case targets how systems and cultures can exclude people from participating and thriving in an organization. The material also bridges the experience of African American employees in U.S. corporations. This case is one in a series, where different employees reveal individual experiences with discrimination and how each functions within a large technology company. While this version of Jeri Caldwell focuses on the CEO as the decision maker, Jeri Caldwell at MOEX, Inc., (A) (UVA-OB-0691) and (B) (UVA-OB-0693) focus on the vice president in the primary decision-making role. Jeri Caldwell at MOEX, Inc.: CEO's Dilemma (Condensed) (UVA-OB-0834) is the abridged version of this case and shortens student preparation time.
