Ethical Choices. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 164
In recent years, organizations have been under an
ethical microscope and large organizations have
failed as a result of poor decisions by individuals
within the organizations.
Managers do not have the luxury of having a chart
with the correct answers to every situation they
will face in the course of their careers.
Occasionally, they will encounter situations where
they will have to make decisions that may not be in
alignment with their own values. Major
considerations are organizational context and
personal ethical belief systems. When the two clash,
ethical dilemmas surface and managers must find ways
to handle them.
The idea for the study that provided the material
for this book evolved as a result of the author's
own experiences with ethical dilemmas in the
workplace. Through the voices of middle managers,
Wanda, Cindy, Bill, Andrew, Walter, Greg, Paul,
Mike, Sam, and Matt, themes emerge to help us
understand factors that influence or impede the
ethical decision-making process for managers in
organizations.
