Walking your WalkThe book mentions that ethics is a matter of behavior. This means that for something to be part of your ethical beliefs, you must be willing to act on it depending on the situation. If you are not willing to act on something that you say is your ethical and moral beliefs, is that really part of your ethics? I don't think a person can believe something and contradict their beliefs with the decisions they choose to make. The decisions people make determine for them what their ethical and moral beliefs are. Words are worthless when it comes to ethics. I think that in the case of ethics the expression should be reversed. If you walk, you are allowed to talk. For example, a teacher has many students, and at the beginning of the semester, or early in his teaching career, he chooses to grade fairly and give grades to students based on the results of assignments, tests, and participation. This is the right and ethical way of grading for the teacher. If the teacher has a student who tries hard, puts in time outside of class, and has a tutor, but ultimately struggles with the material. Would this student deserve to get a failing grade just because he or she is slower than the rest of the class? Why does the intelligent child who doesn't have to make any effort and everything comes naturally get the good grade? I think teachers are more likely to give a passing grade to the student who is trying so hard, when the numbers are what should determine the grade. I believe you absolutely have an ethical responsibility to be a role model for others in your daily life. activities. If you are in a management position for example, how can you expect people to behave the way you want them to if you are not willing to lead by example? I believe that a manager, or even a person for that matter, should not ask you to do something that they would not do themselves if placed in the same situation. If you do not act on something that is part of your ethical and moral convictions, it is not part of your ethical constitution. Rather, it is a moral and ethical wish list, and the only things on that list you can claim are the things you practice and use to make your decisions..
