PROJECT: BUSINESS ETHICS Assignment Directions
In this assignment, you are given scenarios for which you must determine the most ethical response. There are many ways and processes to make ethical decisions, and if you do an Internet search for ethical decision-making, you will find information from three steps to eight or more steps that can be used to make an ethical decision. Three steps for ethical decision making are to determine: 1) the problem; 2) who it affects; and 3) the consequences. If you can determine the nature of the problem and who it affects, then it is easier to determine consequences, from which you can decide the best course of action. There are often many options when it comes to ethical decision-making, so be sure to read the scenarios thoroughly and brainstorm possible outcomes. Be able to defend your options and respond to criticism. Respond to one of the scenarios. Include details about how you would make your decision and why.

Your soccer team remains undefeated and is preparing for the state playoffs. You happen to know and can prove that several players are using steroids to get bigger and stronger. If anyone found out about the players' steroid use, playoff eligibility would be taken away, as would the winning record the team currently holds. Would you blow the whistle on the team members using steroids? Why or why not?
Money at your company is not secured, and you could easily steal $10,000 without ever getting caught. Would you do it, knowing you could get away with it? Why or why not?
Your boss has asked you to obtain marketing feedback on one of the products your company produces.

Would you follow your boss’s directions? Why or why not?
