Hello, Discuss the two most interesting aspects of ethics training that you have learned about from the required learning content this week. Why did you find these most interesting? Ethical training is a valuable process that helps understand and navigate the ethical considerations. The two interesting ethics training that I found to be most interesting would be: Typical Behaviors Experience includes understanding how to obey company rules, effective communication, taking responsibility, accountability, professionalism, trust, and mutual respect for your co-workers. This training provides the foundation of how employees should behave, how to apply to their position at work, and whether it complies with or violates the organization’s code of conduct. I found the Typical Behaviors Experience interesting because the organization is laying the foundation for the behaviors that will be tolerated within the organization. They set the standard of how a company and its employees should behave and treat others. Organizations that utilize the Typical Behaviors Experience provide their employees with the tools necessary to be successful by leading them by example. Ethics Personality Measures a llow employers to provide their employees with the tools needed to begin to understand and reflect on themselves and improve the quality of work they provide to their company. Personality tests can be subjective depending on who is taking the test and whether the employees are being open and honest, but when done correctly, the information received can allow employees to begin to understand their best working practices

and ways that they can improve their processes to ensure that they are meeting their own personal and professional potential. When employees can understand their behaviors, this promotes employees to work at a level of character that attributes them best while also being able to look internally at areas they would like to improve for continued growth. I have participated in the Ethics Personality Measures and when I was able to identify my personality and how I achieve my personal goals and desires while also meeting the needs of the company. Which one legal regulation that might relate to hiring, promotion, and firing would you include in a general corporate training plan? Why? Universalism is a principle in decision-making manifested in the outward expression of leadership character by the respectfulness of others, fairness, cooperativeness, compassion, spiritual respect, and humility. Applying moral Universalism within the hiring, promotion, and firing process allows organizational leadership to comply with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) laws by respecting one another and their differences. It is illegal for employers to discriminate against future and current employees regarding a person’s race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. An organization must apply the foundation of ethical and moral standards to ensure that they are in accordance with the EEOC laws. Legal rights and moral rights are closely involved with one another and when applied appropriately this can allow for an organization to increase performance by creating an ethical and safe workplace. Using what you have learned from our ethical decision-making material this week, how would you approach making these decisions above?

During this week's reading, I found the concept of the six common ethical theories interesting. When breaking down the major moral theories, Egoism, Social Group Relativism, Cultural Relativism, Utilitarianism, Deontology, and Virtue Ethics. Breaking down ethics allows for a better understanding of the unique differences in ethics and provides a greater understanding of how to identify and address situations when they arise. Understanding the differences between ethical groups directs how individuals, organizations, and other stakeholders can make decisions. Moral training can help you identify so you can examine choices and options before deciding and solving an ethical dilemma. Each ethical theory provides a different perspective on what makes up moral behavior. The choices between each theory often depend on one's ethical framework and specific contracts in which ethical decisions are made. These general steps provide an approach to ethical decision-making. The goal is to analyze ethical and moral issues, consider many prospects, and make thoughtful decisions that align with ethical values. Deontological Ethics – The action is good if it follows the rules. Utilitarian Ethics – The action is good if the consequences are good for all affected. It is most widely used within corporations and nations. Virtue Ethics – The action is good if it’s what a virtuous person would do—honesty, courage, and compassion. Egoism – Individuals should act in their interest. A theory that treats self-interest as the foundation of morality. Social Group Relativism – The majority of social group practices determine morality.
