Ethics and Social Responsibility Managers are faced with making decisions each day, some that are programmed and others that are non-programmed. It is in the making of non-programmed decisions where managers often find themselves on the horns of an ethical dilemma. Some decisions that appear to be profitable can be short-sighted, unethical, and unwise in the long term. When deadlines may not be met, when the threat of failure casts a larger shadow than the prospect for success, when the thrill of reward obscures long-term consequences, or when monetary incentives can easily skew one's decisions, how can a manager be certain that the actions they take, as well as the actions taken by others in the organization, are always ethically sound?
Also, Please describe current events in which the managers involved did not act ethically. Be certain to discuss in detail the ethical principles violated in the example you provide and describe what would be the ethical thing to do in that situation.
