To report suspected violations of Magna’s Code of Conduct and Ethics,
visit The Good Business Line at www.magnagbl.comQ: At Auto Shanghai, I ran into a former sales colleague
who now works for a competitor. Over lunch, he
asked if we could come up with a joint strategy to
deal with a difficult new buyer. I told him I would get
back to him. What should I have done?
A: While having a casual lunch with a former colleague
need not be a problem, any attempt to coordinate
strategy with a competitor is strictly prohibited.
In such a situation, you should immediately end
the conversation about strategy coordination and
tell your lunch companion that you do not wish to
discuss the topic. You should then promptly inform
your manager or a Legal Compliance expert.
