In class we learned about 5 other theories while some have affected my position on the Moral Point of View, others have not. Divine Command Theory is based on theism, and that humans need help from God to be good. A right action is one that God commands is right while a wrong action is one that God commands as wrong. This theory is impractical because it contradicts itself. God can command whatever, whenever he wants, which would mean that he is arbitrary. This theory does not affect my position…

Ethical dilemmas always seem to be shrouded when it comes to the Healthcare arena. There should be concern in rural areas which lacks a standard of healthcare. Society’s health is sometimes at the mercy of the local governing body when it comes down to care being provided.

His positive ethical views are best understood…

An organization’s ethics matter significantly because standards replicate the organization’s reputation regarding reliance, reverence, impartiality, and fair-mindedness” (Society for Human Resource Management, 2015, p. 119). A perception of ethic is good because most of the time employees don’t care what…

Ethical Reasoning Ethical dilemmas can sometimes be very complex situations where the decision and individual makes could have a negative effect on either party, depending on which decision you choose. I believe that every person has the intention of doing the right thing but in some cases there is not a right choice and one or both sides of the situation could have negative consequences. For example lets take four individuals in a college setting, three guys and one girl. The guy’s names are…

Since attending UNLV I have heard a lot of professionals, alumnus, and professors “keys to success” but one that seems to come up time and time again is just how important it is to be a leader. There are several kinds of leadership including servant, autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. Brett Shannon talked to us about what it means to be a coach centric leader. A coach centric leader is someone in whom leadership seems effortless, a positive attitude is contagious, and sees that every…

In Plato’s Meno, Socrates and Meno discuss the concept of virtue, where they realize neither of them have all the answers to what virtue is. Citation. According to dictionary.reference.com, virtue is “moral excellence; goodness; righteousness” and “conformity of one 's life and conduct to moral and ethical principles; uprightness; rectitude.” I agree with Socrates when he says, he cannot teach virtue because he doesn 't know what virtue is.
