Ethical Decision-Making Models (M3D1)

In your textbook, Cooper provides a design approach to ethical decision-making. This is not the only model for ethical decision-making. For this discussion, you will research ethical decision-making models and locate an article or example illustrating how an organization or public administrator applied an ethical decision-making model.

Respond to the following:

  • Locate an article or example illustrating an ethical decision-making model used by a public organization or individual public administrator and provide a summary of the steps outlined in this model.
  • Provide your own analysis as to the general utility of this model in resolving ethical dilemmas in public organizations.
  • Identify and explain one way in which the model you found is different from Cooper’s model.

Part 2

Resolving Ethical Dilemmas

For this discussion, you will use the conflict faced by Karah in Self-Test 2 (reproduced below) and apply the decision-making model you found for M3D1.

Karah is hiring a human resources expert to conduct recruiting, hiring, payroll, and benefits administration for her 50-employee, non-profit organization. She has reviewed the IRS rules on classification of consultants as independent contractors versus employees, and believes the way she has structured the HR expert’s work for the organization makes her an employee, not an independent contractor. Even after explaining this to her boss, Karah’s boss orders her to pay the HR expert as an independent contractor so the organization does not have to pay payroll taxes for her.

Respond to the following:

  • Applying the decision-making model you found for M3D1, describe the steps Karah should take to attempt to resolve her ethical dilemma.
  • If Karah had applied Cooper’s model instead of the model you found, would she have reached a different conclusion?  Why or why not?

Post your primary response (approximately 500 words Each Part).

Feel free to use the same organization you researched for the Unit VI and Unit VII Assignments.

You can use the same sources for all assignments, if applicable.

In the report, you will provide a potential audience analysis, create a purposeful message, and discuss a type of channel that you could use for feedback. Include answers to Neal’s (2010) communication questions, which are listed below:

  1. What am I trying to achieve?
  2. How will my audience react to what I am trying to achieve?
  3. Will my message be resisted?
  4. What do I know about my audience that will help me tailor my message? (p. 40)

Do not include the question/answers in a bullet or list format. Instead, integrate the responses in your paragraphs.

Use the standard five-paragraph format (introduction/body/conclusion). Include at least two academic sources. APA format should be used. The assignment should be a minimum of two pages in length. Content, organization, and grammar/mechanics will be evaluated.
