Answer all questions
In looking at the LA Times article and how cycling is an "allegory for life," explain what this means and describe where you would place Armstrong and his actions, and explain why. Did Armstrong act with integrity (refer to pg.10 of the e-book)?
Lance Armstrong says if he was given the opportunity, he'd cheat again, and even in later interviews has stated that he "wouldn't change a thing." In a short paragraph, explain why he would stand by his decision to cheat and describe how Armstrong uses ethical relativism(refer to pg.20 of the e-book) to justify his actions.
In the 2013 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Armstrong stated that he was leveling the playing field because many other competitive cyclists were also doping. Do you think his reasons for doping were ethically justifiable? Why or why not?
Read Personal and Professional Roles(refer to pg.42 of the e-book). A characteristic of virtue ethics is the integration of personal and professional life. In a short paragraph, describe how Armstrongs actions might have been different if he had adhered to virtue ethics.
Define Corporate Social Responsibility (refer to pg.19 of the e-book). As a charity founder, did Armstrong have an obligation to view his actions through the lens of this business model?
Armstrong's case demonstrates the pitfalls of winning at all costs. If you were an athlete and became aware of a teammates use of banned performance-enhancing drugs, what would you do and why? What if telling someone puts you at risk of losing your position on the team? Explain your reasoning.
