Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
Ethical Decision-Making
What to decide in ambitious/complicated
situations?
What to decide in a dilemma situation?
Ethical theory can help to find a solution.
Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
• Ethical Theories provides part of the solution when
decisions need to be made in situations where ethics
(right and wrong) play a role.
• Ethical theories provide guidelines.
• Each theory emphasizes different points:
– A different decision-making style, or
– A decision rule – eg to predict the outcome of the
decision and to follow duties to others in order to
reach what the said individual considers to be
ethically correct.
Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
In order to understand ethical decision-making,
it is important to acknowledge that not everyone makes
decisions in the same way by using exactly the same
information.
To further understand ethical theory, there must be a
common understanding of a common set of goals based
on ethical principles:
• Beneficence
• Least Harm
• Respect for autonomy
• Justice
Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
Common set of goals based on ethical principles:
• Beneficence
– Guides the decision-maker to do what is good and
right.
– « to do good » makes the possible solution to an
ethical dilemma acceptable
– The principle is related to utilty theory (we should
attempt to to generate the largest ration of good
over evil possible in the world.
Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
Common set of goals based on ethical principles:
• Least Harm
– As in the case of beneficence, least harm deals
with situations in which no choice seems
beneficial.
– In these cases, decision-makers base their
decisions on doing the least harm to the greater
number of people.
Introduction to Business Ethics Theories
Common set of goals based on ethical principles:
• Respect for autonomy
– This principle states that decision-making should
focus on allowing people to be autonomous – to be
able to make decisions that apply to their lives.
• Justice
– Decision-makers should focus on actions that are
fair to those involved.

Egoism is not selfishness.

sometimes implemented, because they have a positive long-term impact on the
financial performance of a company.

Effective communication is the key to healthy relationships, whether personal or professional. Clear and effective communication is essential for success in any career or industry, but even more so for health care where people’s lives are at stake. This week you will be introduced to the elements of the communication process. One of these elements is perception. Perception is how we become aware of objects, events, people, and their behaviors. Our perception can be shaped by our background and personal experiences, which may lead to issues in how we perceive certain things. Although perception is often overlooked in everyday conversations with others, it is a fundamental process in all communication. We must examine effective ways to perceive situations accurately to improve our interpersonal and work relationships.
Although cross-cultural communication is not new, global communication has become easier and more accessible because of the internet and other new technologies. Effective intercultural communication helps avoid conflict, prevent misunderstandings, and foster respect in the workplace. Communication between individuals of different cultures is successful when we learn to create cultural bridges. These bridges require an understanding of other cultures and our personal values. There are many cultural barriers in a typical diverse workplace. Besides differences in language, other factors challenge people who are trying to work with others from a different background. We must learn how to move beyond stereotypes and understand the differences in people.

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
