Discussion: Applying Ethical Frameworks WK 6

Discussion: Applying Ethical Frameworks
Although the Ethics Resource Center conveyed, as of 2013, that 41% of employees reported having witnessed misconduct in the workplacedown from 45% in 2011this percentage remains alarmingly significant (McGregor, 2014). In fact, these statistics seem to indicate an ongoing need to continue to strengthen commitment to ethical business practice. Business professionals and scholars need to know how to face ethical dilemmas and make sound ethical decisions. As a DBA independent scholar and global change agent, you should have a basic understanding of various ethical frameworks and understand how these frameworks influence real-world business decisions. Northouse (2016) stated, Ethical theories that deal with the conduct of leaders are in turn divided into two kinds: theories that stress the consequences of leaders actions and those that emphasize the duty or rules governing leaders actions (p. 333). Business leaders apply their ethical values daily for decision making in business. Understanding and analyzing various ethical frameworks can help you as you work to solve ethical dilemmas.

To prepare for this Discussion, consider Case 13.2, How Safe Is Safe? on pages 357-358 of Northouse (2019) and review the Albert, Reynolds, and Turan (2015), Lawton and Pez (2015), Hoover and Pepper (2015), and Gustafson (2013) articles provided in this weeks Learning Resources.
