Considered Sensibility and Considered Autonomy (CSCA)
You listen to your intuition (sensibility) to determine the greatest good for yourself and each individual (autonomy).
Your Primary Values show how you prioritize the tension
between rationality and sensibility as well as autonomy and
equality.
Your primary values are Sensibility and Autonomy
You have a considered preference for the value of sensibility (CS)—following your heart—over rationality—following your head. As a
CS, your passions and emotions provide appreciable energy as you seek your heart's desires. You thoughtfully frame the narrative of
your life in terms of being all you can be as you strive to embody the ideals of your roles.
You give a considered priority to the value of autonomy (CA)—respecting the individual—over equality—giving priority to the group.
As a CA, you want to choose your own path and life goals. However, as you are making your decisions, you may find that your choices
are shaped by the opinions of others and the general community expectations about what constitutes a "good life." You
wholeheartedly defend the right of every human to choose how they will live into their full potential as they seek their own expression of
the good life.
Know Yourself
Pay attention to your beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors.
The first step to ethical agility and maturity is to carefully read the description of your own ethical lens. While you may resonate with
elements of other lenses, when you are under stress or pressure, you’ll begin your ethical analysis from your home lens. So, becoming
familiar with both the gifts and the blind spots of your lens is useful. For more information about how to think about ethics as well as
hints for interpreting your results, look at the information under the ELI Essentials and Exploring the ELI on the menu bar.
Understanding Your Ethical Lens
Over the course of history, four different ethical perspectives, which we call the Four Ethical Lenses, have guided people in making
ethical decisions. Each of us has an inherited bias towards community that intersects with our earliest socialization. As we make
sense of our world, we develop an approach to ethics that becomes our ethical instinct—our gut reaction to value conflicts. The
questions you answered were designed to determine your instinctual approach to your values preferences. These preferences
determine your placement on the Ethical Lens Inventory grid, seen on the right side of this page.
The dot on the grid shows which ethical lens you prefer and how strong that preference is. Those who land on or close to the center
point do not have a strong preference for any ethical lens and may instead resonate with an approach to ethics that is concerned with
living authentically in the world rather than one that privileges one set of values over another.

IntroductionTwo of the ethical lenses emphasize using rationalit.docxmariuse18nolet
Introduction
Two of the ethical lenses emphasize using rationality – critical thinking – to determine what behavior is ethical.
· Rights and Responsibilities Lens: You (autonomy) use your reason (rationality) to determine the universal principles and rules by which you and others should live.
· Relationship Lens: The members of the community (equality) use their collective reason (rationality) to design and implement processes to assure justice for all.
Two of the ethical lenses emphasize using sensibility – our intuition and emotions – to determine what behavior is ethical.
· Results Lens: You (autonomy) use your feelings and intuition (sensibility) to determine the choices that you should make to contribute to your happiness, and by extension, the happiness of all.
· Reputation Lens: The members of the community (equality) in conversation rely on their feelings and intuition (sensibility) to agree upon the character traits that are required for virtuous living.
Being a Person-in-Community
The Ethical Lens Inventory also helps you determine whether you begin an ethical analysis by focusing on the individual or the community.
Two of the ethical lenses emphasize individuals determining for themselves what behavior is ethical.
· Rights and Responsibilities Lens: You (autonomy) use your reason (rationality) to determine the universal principles and rules by which you and others should live.
· Results Lens: You (autonomy) use your feelings and intuition (sensibility) to determine the choices that you should make to contribute to your happiness, and by extension, the happiness of all.
The other two ethical lenses emphasize the community determining as a whole what behavior is ethical.
· Relationship Lens: The members of the community (equality) use their collective reason (rationality) to design and implement processes to assure justice for all.
· Reputation Lens: The members of the community (equality) in conversation rely on their feelings and intuition (sensibility) to agree upon the character traits that are required for virtuous living.
The next six screens will allow you to choose which of a pair of statements or words most represents the values that propel you to action. You will find some choices are difficult – you would want to do either, depending on the situation. When torn between two answers, choose the one that would represent your values and the action you would take when your back is against the wall and you have to choose.

You listen to your intuition (sensibility) to determine what character traits and virtues will best serve the community (equality).
Core Values: Equality and Sensibility
You prioritize the value of equality over autonomy. Your primary concern is the well-being of the whole community and you believe that assuring the
community's well-being is the best way to assure that individuals are treated fairly. You prioritize the value of sensibility over rationality. You believe the
best results are achieved by examining each situation in its own context rather than applying one-size-fits-all solutions.
Classical Virtues: Fortitude
You demonstrate courage and steadiness in the face of obstacles. You tend to avoid rash actions while at the same time charting an untested course.
You value connections and friendship, appreciating those who work with you as you.
Key Phrase: “I make virtuous choices.”
Because you value equality and sensibility, you tend to assume that everyone lives out the positive character traits required by their role.
Determining What Is Ethical: Living out Role Responsibilities
You define an ethical person as one with sound character traits and habits of thoughtful reflection. For you, those who demonstrate strong leadership
in their roles and who encourage others to do the same exemplify ethical behavior.
Analytical Tool: Tradition
You like to gather information about what others in your role or a similar situation have done, as you carefully assess a problem. Even as you consider
what others you respect have done in similar situations, you will remain attentive to the unique needs of the community in this case.
Gift: Compassion
Because you value equality, when you are at your best, you demonstrate compassion for others. You care about the community as a whole and
about its individual members. W hile living into the requirements of the role you have assumed, you are able to "tell the story" of each member of your
community.
Blind Spot: Unrealistic Role Expectations
Because you rely so strongly on the virtues associated with various roles, you run the risk of developing unrealistic role expectations. You will tend to
rely too much on the virtues associated with a particular role, forgetting that individuals are fallible regardless of their role. Even those who live fully into
the virtues required in their role may not be able to resolve all problems.
Risk: Self-Righteousness
W hen you lack compassion for others, you run the risk of believing that the perks and privileges of your role belong to you because you are better
than others. This can make you susceptible to insincere flattery and immune to constructive critiques preventing you from doing your job effectively.
Double Standard: Entitlement

ETHICS DEMYSTIFIED
Mention that you are interested in learning how people become ethically mature and people will give you
lots of advice … often not useful.
Many believe that they learned everything that they need about ethics and morals as kids, so they don’t
need any more training. However, just like learning addition doesn’t give us enough math to function in an
adult world, the beginning truths of “don’t hit your sister” and “don’t lie” don’t provide us with enough
guidance to know what to do in complex situations.
Many will say that they “just know” what to do. Unfortunately, our gut is not very good at helping us
explain to others why a particular course of action is better than another. Self-knowledge and thoughtful
reflection help us find the right words to explain our positions and influence a course of action.
Many will say that every problem has only one right answer — and we should know that answer. If that
were so, we would not have so many laws and over 5,000 years of conversation about how one should act in
community. If all the answers were self evident, few would make terrible and often unintentional errors of
judgment that call their ethics into question.
And, finally, every person knows they are ethical — just ask. Yet, as we look around, ethics scandals abound.
With a cocked eyebrow we judge each other’s ethics but not our own. We often find that the other person is
ethically deficient and we are just fine.
And we have this niggling question: why, when so many say they are ethical, do we have so many prob-
lems? Is the problem due to human nature — no one can claim to be ethical and there is no hope? Or is there a
more basic problem, one of definition? What do we mean by ethics? And exactly how do we determine what
actions are — or are not — ethical?
The Ethical Lens Inventory (ELI) is a tool to help you answer those questions and to help you become more
aware about your own values. As you understand what values are important to you, you will discover your
preferred approach to solving ethical dilemmas. The ELI will identify your natural ethical home. You will
also be given strategies to help you become more ethically mature. However, before exploring the four ethi-
cal lenses, let’s examine some basic concepts.
BASIC DEFINITIONS
Ethics can be broadly defined as demonstrating our values through our actions. As we make choices, each of
us knows our own heart, our values, and our motivations. With each choice, our values are translated into
concrete actions in specific situations.
The specific actions are then defined as “ethical” or “unethical” depending on whether the actions match
the observer’s understanding of what behaviors count.
§ Did you follow accepted principles?
§ Did you choose ideal goals?
§ Did you seek justice?
§ Did you demonstrate the expected virtues?
Morality: Each of us has a personal set of values that help us decide what to do. While we share
values with others in a v ...
Making Ethical Choices: Self-Reflection and BeyondJohn Gavazzi
This document discusses the importance of self-reflection in ethical decision-making for psychologists. It describes an acculturation model for ethics training using an ethics autobiography to help students integrate their personal values with their professional ethical responsibilities. The document outlines several strategies psychologists can use to thoughtfully consider how their own values, experiences, and emotions influence their ethical judgments and decisions when working with patients. It emphasizes developing self-awareness and practicing self-care so psychologists are able to make ethical choices from an integrated sense of identity and virtue, rather than just following rules.

As leaders of volunteer engagement we’re often asked to make difficult decisions. How do we know if the decisions we’re making are the right ones? When you’re in this type of dilemma how do you intervene or lead? In this highly interactive workshop we’ll explore how ethics guide the work we do leading and engaging volunteers, and we’ll practice using ethical decision making. Attendees will leave with a worksheet to help introduce and use ethical decision making in their organization.

The document discusses the importance of ethics and making ethical decisions. It provides an overview of key concepts like ethics, values, morals, foundational ethics and situational ethics. It also outlines various frameworks that can be used in ethical decision making, such as utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics. The presentation emphasizes developing strong personal convictions, integrity, and using frameworks to thoughtfully evaluate ethical issues and choices.
The document discusses creating an ethical culture within organizations by examining the basic assumptions and values that shape culture. It identifies five shared core values - honesty, responsibility, respect, fairness, compassion - that transcend borders. Living out these values fully would radically change most organizations and how they treat people. A matrix outlines how embracing each value shapes beliefs and actions regarding truth, human nature, power, and relationships. Fully committing to an ethical culture requires acknowledging the magnitude of change needed to make values like dignity, worth, and connectedness the foundations of all interactions.
This document presents the results of Ashley Milliron's StrengthsFinder assessment and identifies her top five signature themes: Adaptability, Belief, Restorative, Ideation, and Empathy. It provides a brief description of each theme, explaining that Ashley is flexible and able to respond to changing demands, has strong core values that guide her life and work, enjoys solving problems and restoring things to working order, is fascinated by ideas and making connections, and has an ability to understand others' perspectives and emotions. The assessment suggests focusing on these signature themes can help Ashley identify and build upon her talents to achieve success.
The document summarizes the respondent's top five signature themes as identified by the StrengthsFinder assessment:
1. Harmony - The respondent seeks agreement and consensus to avoid conflict.
2. Intellection - The respondent enjoys thinking and mental activity, whether focused or unfocused.
3. Learner - The respondent loves learning for its own sake, finding the learning process exciting.
4. Responsibility - The respondent feels bound to follow through on commitments and make things right.
5. Includer - The respondent wants to include people and make them feel part of the group.
This document discusses ethics in science. It begins by defining science as the pursuit of knowledge through empirical evidence and logical reasoning. The document then discusses some ethical issues that can arise in scientific research, such as the use of human and animal subjects. It notes there are guidelines to ensure ethical treatment of research participants. The document also discusses the ethics of stem cell research, which some view as destroying potential human life, while others see its benefits for medical advances. It concludes by noting science can benefit society but also requires ethical oversight to avoid unintended harms.
The four C.O.R.E. perspectives, as well as Blended Categories, f.docxrtodd194
The four C.O.R.E. perspectives, as well as Blended Categories, featured in the Ethics Awareness Inventory are presented below.
(R) RESULTS (MOST)
YOUR ETHICAL PERSPECTIVE:
You tend to base your ethical perspective on the results or consequences of your actions. You believe that conduct should be directed toward promoting the greatest good for the greatest number of persons. In judging whether an individual’s actions are ethical, you look for concrete evidence. It is not enough for an individual to “talk the talk.” Results are needed to indicate that she/he is “walking the walk.” In your opinion, what really counts in reaching an ethical decision is the “bottom line.” Discussions about process and principles are not as important as what is ultimately achieved for the overall good of society. The goal of ethics is to achieve the greatest possible good for society as a whole. This category is most closely aligned in philosophy with a utilitarian theory of ethics (See Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill).
YOUR ETHICAL STYLE:
You believe that we each have a moral right to experience the “good life.” One way to measure how good life really is would be to determine how satisfied the majority of the people in our society seem to be. If most people are unhappy, something is morally wrong and needs to be fixed. Therefore, your approach to ethics is likely to focus on what could be done to improve the well being of the greatest number of persons. One approach might be to develop rules of ethical conduct for people to follow, along with corresponding sanctions, in order to achieve what is best for society as a whole. Another quite different approach might be to improve overall satisfaction by creating a more pleasant environment in which people enjoy learning and working together for the betterment of society. With either approach, your ethical style demands that you achieve measurable results.
FRUSTRATIONS YOU FACE IN ADDRESSING ETHICAL DILEMMAS:
· The inability to adequately measure the far-reaching impacts of an ethical decision may compel you to focus your decision making on the immediate scope of the problem, thereby creating conflicts with those who are not results-oriented.
· You are frustrated by the wide variety of competing views regarding what is good for society as a whole and by the process used to determine whose view ultimately prevails.
· In attempting to maximize the general good, you will, at some point, need to decide whether your goal is to improve the total benefit to society as a whole (the aggregate) or the total benefit per person within society (the average). This definition will have a direct impact on your approach to ethical decision making.
· People who cling to the idealistic notion of protecting the interests of some minority of the population may stand in the way of achieving the good life for the majority.
· People you work with may no.
The document summarizes Stephen Covey's book "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" which outlines principles to help people achieve effectiveness and success. The book presents the principles over four sections that move from dependence to independence to interdependence and focus on personal and public victory through developing good habits. Key habits include being proactive, beginning with the end in mind, putting first things first, thinking win-win, seeking first to understand others, and regularly renewing oneself.
The document summarizes the results of a StrengthsFinder assessment for an individual named John Grubbs. It identifies his top five signature themes: Strategic, Analytical, Intellection, Relator, and Consistency. For each theme, it provides a brief description of how that theme is expressed in the individual's behaviors and way of thinking. The assessment suggests that understanding one's signature themes can help maximize talents and strengths to achieve success through consistent performance.
The document provides an overview of ethics concepts including:
- A short prayer is included to bless the session.
- The mission, vision, and core values of PnC focus on developing professionals through knowledge, skills, and values.
- Impartiality means equal treatment of all while reason is the basis for actions and decisions.
- A 7-step model for moral reasoning is described including gathering facts, identifying principles, assessing alternatives and consequences, and making a decision.
- The relationship between reason and emotion in morality is discussed.
The document summarizes the results of an ethics awareness inventory taken by the author. The inventory assessed the author's ethical perspectives across four categories: character, obligation, results, and equality. The author's highest score was in obligation, suggesting they base their ethics on a sense of duty and responsibility. Their lowest score was in equality, implying they do not view ethics as relative or non-absolute. The document discusses how the author's obligation-focused ethical style may influence their application of psychology and handling of personal, social, and professional issues. It also examines the importance of ethics to the field of psychology and the author's decision to pursue a psychology degree.
Phil Clothier PVA Oct 2015 - Personal Values AssessmentPhil Clothier
This document provides the results of a personal values assessment taken by Phil Clothier in October 2015. It summarizes Phil's key values based on his responses and maps them to Barrett's Seven Levels of Consciousness model. Phil's values indicate he operates across multiple levels and focuses on both self-interest and the common good. His values show qualities like kindness, empowerment, personal growth, and making a positive difference. The document encourages self-reflection on one's values and how they influence decisions and relationships. It provides exercises to further understand the most important values and potential areas for development.
The document describes the Six Dimensions of Wellness Model which includes occupational, physical, social, intellectual, spiritual, and emotional dimensions of wellness. The model recognizes that wellness involves contributions to one's environment and community, enrichment through work and life balance, developing belief systems, regular physical activity and nutrition, mental stimulation, and accepting one's feelings. The dimensions are interrelated and applying a holistic wellness approach can help people achieve their full potential by addressing all aspects of their health and lives.
The document describes the Six Dimensions of Wellness Model which includes occupational, physical, social, intellectual, spiritual, and emotional dimensions of wellness. The model recognizes that wellness is multi-dimensional and that the dimensions are interrelated. Following the wellness path can lead to benefits like personal and career fulfillment, physical fitness, strong relationships and community involvement, intellectual growth, a sense of meaning and purpose, and effective management of feelings.
The document summarizes Stephen R. Covey's book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". It presents the book's principles in four sections - Paradigms and Principles, Private Victory, Public Victory, and Renewal. The Private Victory and Public Victory sections introduce habits intended to lead to independence and interdependence respectively. The final Renewal section directs the reader to begin a process of self-improvement.
Daniel Roberts' top five signature themes as identified by the StrengthsFinder assessment are:
1) Harmony - He seeks agreement and consensus to avoid conflict.
2) Futuristic - He is fascinated by the future and envisions positive possibilities.
3) Relator - He values intimacy in his relationships and wants deep understanding.
4) Belief - He has core values around responsibility, ethics, and meaning that guide his life.
5) Discipline - He imposes structure through routines, timelines, and precision for control and productivity.

Case Study 1
Structure and Function of the Respiratory System
Brad is 45 years old and has been working as a coal cutter in a mine for the last 25 years. He likes the job because it pays well and the same mine had employed his father. Like many of his colleagues, Brad has had problems with a chronic cough. He has avoided his annual checkups for fear that he will be told he has “black lung,” or coal worker’s pneumoconiosis. The disease causes fibrosis, decreased diffusing capacity, and permanent small airway dilation. In later stages, pulmonary capillaries, alveoli, and airways are destroyed.
How can the disease described above create a mismatch between ventilation and perfusion? Use your understanding of alveolar dead space and physiologic shunt to explain your answer.
Individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have more difficulty exhaling than inhaling. Why is this so?
In general terms, what mechanisms in lung disease can affect diffusing capacity across alveolar membranes? Use the Fick law to explain your answer.
Case Study 2
Respiratory Tract Infections, Neoplasms, and Childhood Disorders
Patricia was called at work by a woman at the local daycare center. She told Patricia to come and pick up her son because he was not feeling well. Her son, three-and-a-half-year-old Marshall, had been feeling tired and achy when he woke up. While at daycare, his cheeks had become red and he was warm to touch. He did not want to play with his friends, and by the time Patricia arrived, he was crying. Later that afternoon, Marshall’s condition worsened. He had fever, chills, a sore throat, runny nose, and a dry hacking cough. Suspecting Marshall had influenza, Patricia wrapped him up and took him to the community health care clinic.
Why did Marshall’s presentation lead Patricia to think he had influenza and not a cold? Why is it important to medically evaluate and diagnose a potential influenza infection?
Describe the pathophysiology of the influenza virus. Outline the properties of influenza A antigens that allow them to exert their effects in the host.
Marshall may be at risk at contracting secondary bacterial pneumonia. Why is this so? Explain why cyanosis may be a feature associated with pneumonia.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

1. Ethical Lens Inventory
Irasema
Completed
1/1/0001
Printed
10/27/2018
Your preferred ethical lens is: Results Lens
Considered Sensibility and Considered Autonomy (CSCA)
You listen to your intuition (sensibility) to determine the
greatest good for yourself and each individual (autonomy).
Your Primary Values show how you prioritize the tension
between rationality and sensibility as well as autonomy and
equality.
Your primary values are Sensibility and Autonomy
You have a considered preference for the value of sensibility
(CS)—following your heart—over rationality—following your
head. As a
CS, your passions and emotions provide appreciable energy as
you seek your heart's desires. You thoughtfully frame the
narrative of
your life in terms of being all you can be as you strive to
embody the ideals of your roles.
You give a considered priority to the value of autonomy (CA)—
respecting the individual—over equality—giving priority to the
group.
2. As a CA, you want to choose your own path and life goals.
However, as you are making your decisions, you may find that
your choices
are shaped by the opinions of others and the general community
expectations about what constitutes a "good life." You
wholeheartedly defend the right of every human to choose how
they will live into their full potential as they seek their own
expression of
the good life.
Know Yourself
Pay attention to your beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors.
The first step to ethical agility and maturity is to carefully read
the description of your own ethical lens. While you may
resonate with
elements of other lenses, when you are under stress or pressure,
you’ll begin your ethical analysis from your home lens. So,
becoming
familiar with both the gifts and the blind spots of your lens is
useful. For more information about how to think about ethics as
well as
hints for interpreting your results, look at the information under
the ELI Essentials and Exploring the ELI on the menu bar.
Understanding Your Ethical Lens
Over the course of history, four different ethical perspectives,
which we call the Four Ethical Lenses, have guided people in
making
ethical decisions. Each of us has an inherited bias towards
community that intersects with our earliest socialization. As we
make
sense of our world, we develop an approach to ethics that
becomes our ethical instinct—our gut reaction to value
conflicts. The
questions you answered were designed to determine your
instinctual approach to your values preferences. These
3. preferences
determine your placement on the Ethical Lens Inventory grid,
seen on the right side of this page.
The dot on the grid shows which ethical lens you prefer and
how strong that preference is. Those who land on or close to the
center
point do not have a strong preference for any ethical lens and
may instead resonate with an approach to ethics that is
concerned with
living authentically in the world rather than one that privileges
one set of values over another.
Each of the paragraphs below describes an ethical trait—a
personal characteristic or quality that defines how you begin to
approach
ethical problems. For each of the categories, the trait describes
the values you believe are the most important as well as the
reasons
you give for why you make particular ethical decisions.
To see how other people might look at the world differently,
read the descriptions of the different ethical lenses under the tab
Ethical
Lenses on the menu bar. The “Overview of the Four Ethical
Lenses” can be printed to give you a quick reference document.
Finally,
you can compare and contrast each ethical trait by reading the
description of the trait found under the Traits menu. Comparing
the
traits of your perspective to others helps you understand how
people might emphasize different values and approach ethical
dilemmas
4. differently.
As you read your ethical profile and study the different
approaches, you’ll have a better sense of what we mean when
we use the word
“ethics.” You’ll also have some insight into how human beings
determine what actions are—or are not—ethical.
The Snapshot gives you a quick overview of your ethical
lens.
Your snapshot shows you pursuing your ethical goals.
This ethical lens is called the Results Lens because people with
this focus value having others who are important to them in
their
various communities think highly of their expertise and
character—their results. The Results Lens represents the family
of ethical
theories known as consequentialism, where you consider your
goals to help you determine what is ethical.
Your Ethical Path is the method you use to become ethically
aware and mature.
Your ethical path is the Path of the Hero.
On the ethical Path of the Hero, you follow your intuition to
determine what you want to become, do, and have. Ethical
goals,
sometimes called ideal goals, help you identify what kind of a
person you want to be. As you walk through this life, do you
want to be
kind, generous, and accepting instead of mean-spirited, selfish,
and judgmental? This ethical perspective also helps you
moderate
your desires as you simultaneously decide what you want to
accomplish and what you want to acquire. What achievements
are really
meaningful? How much stuff do you really need?
5. As you walk the Path of the Hero, you energetically pursue your
own goals and strive to work with others to break down barriers
and
find the good life. In the process, you explore your own desires
as informed by community expectations to determine what goals
will
allow you to become the best expression of yourself. You also
learn how to moderate your desires to find satisfaction.
Your Vantage Point describes the overall perspective you
take to determine what behaviors best reflect your values.
The icon that represents your preferred vantage point is a
magnifying glass.
Just as a magnifying glass helps you notice details in your
surroundings, the Results Lens helps you focus on present
circumstances
to make choices bounded by a respect for human dignity—
choices that help you reach your personal goals.
Your Ethical Self is the persona the theorists invite you to
take on as you resolve the ethical problem.
Your ethical self is a particular person with specific desires and
life goals.
Using the magnifying glass of the Results Lens, you think of
your ethical self as a particular person with specific goals and
desires.
You consider your position in the community, available
opportunities, and desirable long and short-term goals as you
choose your path
forward.
You strongly believe that everyone should be empowered to
make choices that make them happy. You also defend the right
of each
person to ultimately take responsibility for their own actions.
6. You have confidence that as you freely make choices that fulfill
your
heart’s desire and seem to make sense, you will create the
greatest amount of good possible for your community.
Your Classical Virtue is the one of the four virtues
identified by Greek philosophers you find the most
important to embody.
Your classical virtue is Prudence—making wise decisions in
everyday affairs.
As you seek ethical maturity, you endeavor to embrace
temperance, being moderate and self-restrained, as your desires
are
moderated by reason. Noticing the problems caused by gluttony
and greed, you consider others as you seek moderation in all
things.
You work to control your desires through discipline and self-
control.
Your Key Phrase is the statement you use to describe your
ethical self.
Your key phrase is “I make wise choices that support a good
life.”
Rather than passively choosing from options that come to you,
you engage your imagination to find ways to both increase your
own
happiness and allow all others to thrive. Because you
moderately value personal autonomy and following your heart’s
desire, you
cherish the choices you make. And, having chosen, you live
with the consequences and don’t whine.
Using the Results Lens
7. By prioritizing sensibility and autonomy, the Results Lens
provides a unique perspective on what specific actions count as
being
ethical. This lens also has its own process for resolving ethical
dilemmas. As you translate your overarching values into
actions—
applied ethics—each perspective provides a particular nuance
on what counts as ethical behavior. This next section describes
how
you can use the Results Lens to resolve an ethical dilemma.
Deciding what is Ethical is the statement that describes
your preferred method for defining what behaviors and
actions are ethical.
Individuals use their emotion and passion to determine the goals
they wish to
pursue.
With a considered preference for sensibility, your emotion and
imagination provide the drive needed to determine and reach the
goals
that you wish to pursue. You believe that as individuals
consider themselves and others they will be ethical—choosing
actions that lead
to good results for individuals, create the greatest happiness for
the greatest number of people, and serve the greater good
resulting
in harmony and satisfaction for many individuals.
Your Ethical Task is the process you prefer to use to
resolve ethical dilemmas.
Your ethical task is to identify ideal goals, the long-term results
that will lead to
a good life.
Your primary focus is seeking that which is Good. As you gaze
through this lens, you follow your heart and consult with your
reason to
8. identify what kind of person you want to become and what
tangible results you want to see in your life and community.
As you consider how to live into the values of a life where all
can thrive, you choose to pursue concrete actions that will bring
those
considered values to life and help you reach your goals, even as
you notice that others might not make the same choices you do.
Your Analytical Tool is your preferred method for critically
thinking about ethical dilemmas.
Your preferred analytical tool is experience.
You determine what is good based on your own personal
experience and the experience of others. The interplay of action
and
reflection based on experience is your most powerful—and
highly valued—analytical tool.
You begin with a careful assessment of the world and your
ability to achieve your stated goals. If you see that a particular
course of
action is not leading to your desired goals or might be hurting
others, you quickly change direction.
Your Foundational Question helps you determine your
ethical boundaries.
Your foundational question is “What would make me happy?”
As you ask “What will make me happy?”, you take time to
thoughtfully explore your feelings and desires to determine your
long-term
goals as well as imagine the kind of person you want to become.
And, any path forward has to meet the ethical minimum of
allowing
yourself—and others—to have meaningful choices about how
9. best to thrive.
Your Aspirational Question helps you become more
ethically mature.
Your aspirational question is “What are mutually good results?”
The path to ethical maturity begins with considering other
people besides yourself. As you moderate your considered
preference for
autonomy and expand your perspective to include others, you
begin thinking about what goals and actions other people might
desire.
You ask, “What are mutually good results?” You want each
person to have a measured amount of freedom. The intent is to
ensure that
as many people as possible can thrive and pursue their own life
plans.
And then, as your perspective shifts to include all people and
find a greater purpose in life than only caring for yourself, you
begin to
use your reason to moderate your considered preference for
sensibility and trusting your heart and reason as you ask, “How
can I be a
partner in creating a better world?” Asking this question allows
you to develop your own sense of accomplishment and to use
your
imagination to help support individuals and the group.
Your Justification for Acting is the reason you give yourself
and others to explain your choice.
Your justification for acting is “I found a win-win solution that
respects
everyone.”
You like to explain your choices by announcing that you found
a win-win solution that respects everyone as individuals. If you
can see
10. that your action allows people to thrive while supporting the
majority of people’s preferences, you are happy.
Because you are in tune with the emotional climate of a
situation and can thoughtfully evaluate the context, you want as
many people
as possible to have a good life. At your best, you will work to
find creative solutions that will not only make people happy but
also meet
your long-term ethical goals—the ability for all to succeed and
live in harmony with others.
Strengths of the Results Lens
The ethical perspective of the Results Lens has been used by
many over thousands of years to provide a personal map toward
ethical
action and personal fulfillment. Striving to embrace core goals
that will allow you to thrive is an effective strategy for
energizing action,
finding a purpose for your life, and getting along well with
others.
Your Gift is the insight you provide yourself and others as
we seek to be ethical.
Your gift is free will.
Free will means not only that you get to freely choose your own
goals but also that you celebrate others being able to do the
same. You
accept the consequences of your actions and learn to tolerate
moral ambiguity.
As you gain ethical maturity, you develop the flexibility to look
clearly at the past, imagine the future, and act in the present to
fulfill your
desires as informed by your reason. Energized by possibilities,
you bring optimism and enthusiasm to the table.
11. Your Contemporary Value is the current ethical value you
most clearly embody.
Your contemporary value is seeking the greatest good.
You are actively committed to finding the greatest good for as
many individuals as possible, including yourself. That
commitment,
however, gives a considered privilege to autonomy—the right of
people to determine for themselves what is “good,” while
thinking
about the desires of others. Still, you value people having the
opportunity to live from their own enlightened self-interest.
As you move from private action to public policy, you begin to
moderate your own desires to consider the desires of others. As
you
consider others, you find the utilitarian approach to ethics,
carefully assessing which action will create the greatest good,
particularly
valuable. At your best, you take responsibility for your actions,
even those that end badly. In the process, you thoughtfully
savor life.
Your Secondary Values are those that logically flow from
your primary values.
Your secondary values focus on maximizing opportunities to
support a fulfilled,
purposeful life.
The Path of the Hero involves enthusiastically embracing
flexibility and creativity. You also want to achieve your goals
efficiently by
consuming as few resources as possible. You are loyal as you
act in the best interest of yourself and others in the community.
12. Finally,
you work to avoid conflicts of interest.
Challenges of the Results Lens
One of the greatest challenges of the Results Lens is
recognizing that your desires may not be fulfilled—and in fact
may be thwarted,
leading to unhappiness. Those who have a considered
preference for sensibility and for autonomy, are somewhat
vulnerable to the
ethical blind spots of the Results Lens that come from not
making peace with your lot in life, resenting the success of
others, and a
yearning desire for “more.” Using the magnifying glass of the
Results Lens to engage in careful personal reflection helps you
avoid
ethical blind spots that come from self-deception.
Your Blind Spot is the place you are not ethically aware and
so may unintentionally make an ethical misstep.
Your blind spot is being satisfied with too little good.
Our ethical blind spots may cause us to inadvertently be
unethical because we are not paying attention. Without being
mindful, actions
that are grounded in good intentions may wind up not meeting
either your own or other’s ethical standards.
Being very sensitive to the emotional climate of the situation
and beginning to listen to your rational voice, you still may
forget to
maintain consistency between your long-term goals and your
actions. Trying to take care of meeting everyone else’s desires,
you
might become angry and resentful because no one is considering
what will make you happy.
13. Because you want to make people happy and are reluctant to
second guess what others might want, you may take the path of
expedience and be satisfied with too little good as you don’t
hold yourself and others accountable for the consequences of
their
actions. By not using your reason, you may forget to test your
action against the principles that keep unfettered desire in
check.
Your Risk is where you may be overbearing by expecting
that people think just like you.
Your risk is being calculating.
When faced with conflict, you believe that every decision can
be reduced to a cost-benefit analysis that supports you getting
what you
want, as you try to balance your short-term goals with your
long-term objectives. In doing your calculations, you may fail
to respect the
humanity and desires of others. While economic utilitarianism
has a place, human beings have more complex desires than
simply
maximizing their own economic status—after all, many things
do not have a monetary value. If you assume that everyone
wants the
same things that you do, you may forget to ask others what they
want or fail to honor their wishes.
Your Double Standard is the rationalization you use to
justify unethical actions.
Your double standard is expedience, making choices based on
what is politic
or personally advantageous.
Humans are skilled at deflecting blame if caught being
14. unethical—taking actions that do not live into personal or
communal
expectations and that thwart human thriving. As you view the
world through the Results Lens, you judge the ethics of yourself
and
others by whether the actions help you achieve your desired
goals.
When you are tempted to be unethical, your will be tempted to
deflect blame with the double standard of expedience—making
choices
based on what is advantageous to you and those close to you,
rather than pursuing excellence. Also, believing that the show is
more
important than substance, you might substitute acquiring
material goods for the richness of living a good life. Failure
comes as you
realize that no one ever has enough “stuff” to satisfy the deepest
longings of the heart.
Your Vice is the quality of being that could result in you
being intentionally or carelessly lured into unethical action.
Your vice could be becoming greedy and failing to moderate
desires.
Vices come into play when we know that the actions we are
considering are not ethical and choose to follow that particular
path
anyway. These unethical choices illumine our very human moral
flaw that, if not acknowledged and resisted, may turn unethical
choices
into habits.
While unethical action can come from being unaware, humans
also have moral flaws that, if not acknowledged, may turn
unethical
choices into habits. Because you have a considered preference
15. for sensibility, your strong desires fuel greed and recklessness.
Without a measure of humility and reflection, you could seek
only to satisfy your own unmoderated desires, regardless of the
impact
on others.
With a considered preference for autonomy, you may also
succumb to envy and jealousy. By focusing on your lack instead
of
celebrating your own abundance, you may inadvertently forget
to share from your resources—which need not be money—and
fail to
help others reach their goals.
Your Crisis is the circumstance that causes you to stop and
evaluate your ethical choices.
Your crisis may be failure, precipitated by facing your inability
to meet deeply
desired goals.
As you continue to walk the Path of the Hero, you will at some
point face a personal crisis as you acknowledge your inability to
meet
seemingly rational goals. Believing that all things are possible
in a fundamentally good world, you become so committed to
reaching
your goals that failure can be overwhelming.
Confronted with failure that causes an unraveling of your world,
you may wind up on a slippery slope to unethical behavior—
neither
considering those who have entrusted their life journey to you
nor paying attention to those who offer thoughtful advice. Many
who have
been found guilty of financial misconduct began with one small
transaction that they thought that they could “make right”
without anyone
16. knowing the difference.
Strategies for Ethical Agility and Ethical Maturity
Resolving ethical conflict is an ongoing as well as challenging
task. Because our personal morals and community ethics come
from
our deeply held values, we must approach the problems
mindfully. Great self-knowledge helps us identify the values
that are in conflict.
Listening respectfully to others as they express their preferred
course of action based on their core values also helps. Seeking
harmony between our personal expectations and the behavior
that the community rewards enhances ethical effectiveness and
leads
to ethical maturity, the ability to live in personal integrity while
respecting the value priorities of and caring for both other
individuals and
the community as a whole.
Ethical agility is measured by our ability to use all four ethical
lenses effectively. We develop ethical agility as we practice
looking at
the world through different ethical lenses, become more aware
of the places where we are tempted to be unethical, and
remember to
ask the core questions that define each ethical perspective.
Follow the checklist for action
Ethical courage involves not just analyzing and reflecting—but
also taking action. Pausing to check a proposed action against
the
value priorities of Results Lens is a good final step for people
from every ethical perspective. Using the checklist from each
17. lens
ensures a balanced decision, one that considers the core values
and commitment of each lens.
Remember to make choices that will contribute to both you and
others achieving a good life.
Focus on the abundance you want to create for yourself and
others. Expect good results from your actions and you’ll be
more
likely to get those results.
Ask people what will make them happy. Remember that each
person has different goals and criteria for happiness.
Hold people accountable for their choices. Encourage people to
think through the consequences of their choices. And then when
choices are made, honor them and be willing to live with the
outcomes—whether good, bad, or ugly.
As you become skilled at using your ethical magnifying glass to
identify the goals you wish to pursue in this life and moderate
your
desires, you will find yourself in good company with others who
follow the Path of the Hero on their journey through life.
Develop ethical agility
Ethical agility is the ability to use all four ethical lenses—and
the center perspective—effectively. You become more ethically
agile as
you practice looking at the world through different ethical
lenses, become more aware of the places where you are tempted
to be
unethical, and remember to ask the core questions that define
each ethical perspective.
Recognize the language of the different lenses
As you read about different approaches to ethics, you can pick
up the subtle clues to other people’s ethical perspectives by the
18. words
they choose to describe the problems and the reasons for their
proposed course of action. To learn more about the other ethical
lenses, read the information about each ethical lens under the
tab Ethical Lenses on the menu bar or review the descriptions of
the
ethical traits for each lens under the tab Traits. You can also
print the document “Overview Four Ethical Lenses” found under
the
Ethical Lens tab to have a quick reference guide to all four
ethical perspectives.
Use all the ethical perspectives
Each ethical lens has a unique perspective on both the way to
solve a problem as well as the specific characteristics of the
most
appropriate solution. To learn more about how each ethical
perspective approaches ethical dilemmas, click Lens in the top
navigation
bar and read through the descriptions of each ethical lens.
Ethical agility is the first step towards ethical maturity, a life-
long process of becoming ever more self-aware and learning
how to move
with dignity and grace in our community. As we move from fear
into confidence, from thinking only of our self to considering
others and
the community as a whole, we gain ethical wisdom—a primary
task of life as we seek that which is True and Good to find the
Beautiful.
