After President Ronald Reagan ordered a presidential commission to review the disaster, Boisjoly was one of the witnesses called. He gave accounts of how and why he felt the O-rings had failed, and argued that the caucus called by Morton Thiokol managers, which resulted in a recommendation to launch, was an "unethical decision-making forum resulting from intense customer intimidation." After the commission gave its findings, Boisjoly found himself shunned by colleagues and managers and resigned from the company. Boisjoly became a speaker on workplace ethics.
