The case of Jenna pertains ethical and legal concerns. I would be evaluating the case using the Forester-Miller & Davis (1996) model, A Practitioner's Guide to Ethical Decision Making. This model has seven steps to help practitioners in the ethical decision-making process, including, identify the problem, apply the ACA Code of Ethics, determine the nature and dimensions of the dilemma, generate potential courses of action, consider the potential consequences of all options and determine a course of action, evaluate the selected course of action, and implement the course of action.

In the article, “Morality and Moral Philosophy,” the author, William K. Frankena, gives the reader an overview and definition of ethics. Frankena uses Plato’s dialogue as an example to illustrate “the sort of thinking” we ought to do when faced with a moral dilemma. The purpose of this article is to describe the nature of ethics or moral philosophy and to demonstrate the different approaches to thinking ethically in decision making. There are those who oppose the idea of thinking ethically about moral issues. One could argue that taking an ethical approach is not always the best answer to a particular problem. Ethics doesn’t always show the right answer to the problem. Others might say, however, that applying moral principles when making moral

We face ethical dilemmas daily in every facet of our lives. Determining how to respond to ethical dilemmas is complex process. Often individuals do not think about all the factors to consider and what questions should they ask. Often an individual will seek to gather the facts about and ethical decision and use that as the decision making factor. However facts are not enough to make ethical decisions because facts only looks at what is. Ethical decision making is based on what should be determined by a set of values or morals that a person or group ascribes to. There are several different ethical frameworks that one could use to think through ethical dilemmas. This paper will analyze the following ethical decision making frameworks: Greenleaf Servant Leadership Test, Markkula Model, Badaracco Model, and the Nash’s 12 Questions Model. In addition I will present my own model for thinking through and handling ethical dilemmas.

With so many varying views on morals and ethics, trying to use reason in ethics without resorting to emotional judgments is difficult. The first stop to overcoming this obstacle is to begin by studying ethical theories. Once a good grasp of the theories has been established, the next task is to create an extreme hypothetical situation and apply the theories to it. Once this can be achieved correctly, it will become easier to make ethical decisions in day-to-day life. Following this process the situation is thus:

In this paper, the author will determine which ethical moral theory is used by each individual and how each theory influence their actions.

Management constitute amongst major components of a company, organization or a business. As such, management oversees employees interactions with their supervisors and also control of people within a particular organization. Also, it includes critical and ethical decision-making process so as to address various ethical dilemmas experienced by employees while undertaking their respective assigned duties within the company.

For example, if the media call asking about a homicide the only information the office will release is the cause and manner of death. However, if the decedent’s next of kin calls we are able to release any and all information to them.

This paper is about ethical decision making that involved a case study in a movie based on a true story. It is about a child named Lorenzo Odone, his disease, adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) and how both his parents relentlessly pursued to find treatment for him. Aside from Mr. and Mrs. Odones’ decision making, the doctors and scientists involved in Lorenzo’s treatment were just as affected. These characters were faced with ethical issues that arose when deciding proper course in finding treatment for Lorenzo’s ALD.

By using philosophical approaches people are able to recognize the situation and then hopefully make informed decisions. While making decisions in an ethical dilemma, the ability to evaluate the decision within cognitive moral development, locus of control, moral disengagement and Machiavellianism will only help the process. This paper will further motivate the discussion of ethics and the process of making informed ethical decisions.

I believe the initial considerations are related to Bill making a good faith effort to protect his client (the child) and provide confidentiality using a sound ethical decision-making model, his ethical identity, the code, and the agreed upon “informed consent”. He is now on the witness stand in a courtroom testifying. His role should be that he is a clinical mental health counselor in private practice and his client is the child. However, I believe Bill has made some mistakes along the way with his decision-making, the use of the code, and now his ethical identity is challenged in what could be a high pressure courtroom setting. It does seem that he is not actually sure what his role is at the moment.

Many of us want to be the best version of ourselves and we strive to achieve this by doing what we believe is right. However, doing the right thing is much harder than what we think. When faced with difficult situations in life, we often find ourselves at war between choosing what we believe is right versus what the society think we should do. We all have different life perspectives, hence what’s right for us may not be right for others. When dealing with ethical dilemma, it’s important to weigh the good and the bad in order to be effective in decision-making. It’s also important to see things from other peoples’ point of view to avoid making assumptions and using unbiased judgment. These things are not easy to do, but they’re the best approach to

“Brad is a production engineer at a bicycle company and part of his job includes inspecting broken bikes and drafting the design repairs for their repair” (Bartlett). Brad is considering replacing a broken brake cable with a more durable material, even though the customer did not request it in their order and specifically requested that “No aesthetic changes be made to the bike” (Bartlett). Brad’s manager suggests that his considered actions would go against the company’s policy of “The customer is always right.” Should Brad disobey the manager and the customer to possibly lose his job or go along with
