Ethical Tests

 Is it right?  Is it fair?  Who gets hurt?  Would you be comfortable if the details of your decision were reported on the front page of your local newspaper?  What would you tell your child?  How does it smell? (How does it feel?)

Laura Nash’s 12 Questions  Have you defined the problem accurately?  How would you define the problem if you stood on the other side of the fence?  How did the situation occur?  To whom and to what do you give your loyalty as a person and as a member of the corporation?  What is your intention in making this decision?

Laura Nash’s 12 Questions  How does this intention compare with the probable results?  Who could your decision injure?  Can you discuss the problem with affected parties before you make your decision?  Are you confident that your decision will be valid over a long period?  Could you disclose, without qualm, your decision?

Laura Nash’s 12 Questions  What is the symbolic potential of your action if understood? If misunderstood?  Under what conditions would you allow exceptions?

Golden Rule  “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

The Intuitional Ethic  We know apart from reason what is right. We have a moral sense about what is right and wrong. We should follow our “gut feeling” about what is right.

The Means-Ends Ethic  We may choose unscrupulous but efficient means to reach the end if the ends are really worthwhile and significant. Be sure the ends are not the means.

The Test of Common Sense  “Does the action I am getting ready to take really make sense?” Think before acting.

The Test of One’s Best Self  “Is this action or decision I’m getting ready to take compatible with my concept of myself at my best?”

The Test of Ventilation  Do not isolate yourself with your dilemma. Get feedback from others before acting or deciding.

The Test of the Purified Idea  “Am I thinking this action or decision is right just because someone with authority or knowledge says it is right? You may still be held responsible for taking action.
