Most of people involved in business—whether functioning as a small business owner, employee,
填空题
or chief executive officer of a multinational company—eventually face ethical or moral dilemmas
填空题
in the workplace. Such dilemmas are usually complex, for they force the person making the wrong
填空题
decision to weigh out the benefits that various business decisions impart on individuals him or
填空题
herself and groups with the negative repercussions that those same decisions they usually have on other individuals or groups. LaRue Hosmer, a business ethics expert who teaches at the
填空题
University of Michigan, observed that reaching at a "right" or "just" conclusion when faced with moral problems can be a bewildering and vexing proposition. But he contended that business
填空题
people are likely to reach and act on morally appropriate decisions if only they do not lose sight of
填空题
the fundamental issue of fairness. Those who get sidetracked by issues of profitability and legality
填空题
in gauging the morality of a business decision making, on the other hand, often reach ethically
填空题
skewed choices. As has been proven time and again in the business world, the legality of a course
填空题
of action may be utterly irrelevant to its "rightness. " In addition, any such discussion of business
填空题
ethics is a subjective one, for everyone brings in different concepts of ethical behavior to the table.
