Case 1 - Acting Area Manager's Rules on Accepting Gifts. Immediately upon being promoted to an acting second level manager position within the same organization in which I had been a first level manager, I published a list of Rules of Conduct with suppliers that was much stricter than company policy. Among these was a rule that stated: "No gifts of any kind could be accepted from suppliers." I was immediately confronted by a young engineer who asked if this included tickets to Buffalo Bills football games. I replied that it did. He stated that it was wrong for me to establish such rules. His peers on other product programs in the company were allowed to accept such tickets and they and the sponsoring supplier could have meaningful technical discussions at the games. At the time, engineers were receiving gifts such as the tickets, all-expense paid deep sea fishing trips, ski trips, etc. "Business lunches" were very frequent, always paid for by the supplier. What should the manager do in this situation
