Sorry, sir. But my answer is no. We know that honesty is the best policy. Sir, I believe in wealth maximization, not in profit maximization. If I told a lie for my organization with the stakeholders of our organization, it may well for sometimes, but not forever.

Lying is not good but telling not truth can also be a way in way of MANIPULATION, so its better not to tell lie because of image of company and of ourself but to tell that thing in a different way can be a solution for that as this is a world of competition.

Personally, I won't lie.
If the situation comes, First of all, I would try to resolve that problem lying is not the solution to the problem. But if there is no option and my lie makes a positive impact then I’ll lie but obviously, I’ll be conscious of that.

I try to find the solution to the problem if I lie now later my company will face problems because of me and it is not good for my company and me.
For every problem, there is a perfect solution so I try to resolve those problems without harm to someone.

I will try to resolve the problem instead of lying. If I lie to my company sooner or later, the truth will be revealed one day, which may affect my career or my company's reputation. So, I will try to find the solution to the problem, rather than lying.

It's okay to lie when no one is hurt. If the company or we have to lie, we have to see that there is no loss to the company or us in the times to come. I believe that no company or we should lie so that people's trust in us or the company remains.

This is a question on ethical dilemma. Obviously, if the organisation is in great trouble I will be one of the first people to do something to alleviate the situation. I am a loyal person and will probably be the last one to leave a sinking ship.

I would never do anything to hurt the company reputation had worked with several companies, I believe every company's policy is integrity and I always stickily follow company rules and regulations. Never lie is the principle of every company.

In my opinion, we should not tell lie whether it is beneficial for our company or not.
Beacause lie gives us satisfaction for some time but if we will tell the truth then it harms for a couple of time but it will be benifial for a lifetime.
