11. Ethical Theories

12.  Ethical theories provide part of the decision-making
foundation for these theories represent the viewpoints
from which individuals seek guidance as they make
decisions.
 Each theory emphasizes different points – a different
decision-making style or a decision rule—such as
predicting the outcome and following one’s duties to
others in order to reach what the individual considers
an ethically correct decision.

13.  In order to further understand ethical theory, there
must be some understanding of a common set of
goals that decision makers seek to achieve in order
to be successful. Four of these goals include
beneficence, least harm, respect for autonomy, and
justice.
 In order to understand ethical decision making, it is
important to realize that not everyone makes
decisions in the same way, using the same
information, employing the same decision rules.

14. Kinds of Ethical Theories
Utilitarian Ethics
Deontological Ethics
Virtue Ethics

15.  The greatest good for the greatest number of
people
 An action is right if and only it produces the
greatest balance of pleasure over pain of every
one.
 “Actions are right in proportion as they tend to
promote happiness, wrong as they tend to produce
the reverse of happiness."
 “Millennials will use utilitarian reasoning to avoid
confrontation and achieve consensus.”
Utilitarian Ethics

16. Utilitarian Ethics
Is it
good?
Is my behavior
making the
world a better
place?
What impact is
having my
behavior to
the world?

17. Cons!
Decision makers are
forced to guess the
outcome of their
choices.
It is not always
possible to predict
the outcome of your
decision.Harming a minority and
benefitting a majority
doesn’t build mutually
beneficial
relationship.

18.  “Human beings should be treated with dignity
and respect because they have rights.” –
Immanuel Kant (Father of Modern Deontology)
 Action is based on morals.
 The core concept behind this is that there are
objective obligations, or duties, that are
required of all people. When faced with an
ethical situation, then, the process is simply
one of identifying one’s duty and making the
appropriate decision.
Deontological Ethics

19. Set of Absolute Morals (WD Ross)
1. Duties of fidelity-to keep promises
2. Duties of reparation- To compensate for injuries
3. Duties of gratitude- return favors
4. Duties of justice- to distribute goods according to people’s
merits or deserts.
5. Duties of beneficence- to do whatever to improve
conditions of others.
6. Duties of self-improvement- To improve our own condition
with respect to virtue and intelligence
7. Duties of no maleficence-To avoid injuries to others.

20. Deontological Ethics
Is it right?
What duties
do I owe?
What are my
ethical principles
telling me I
should do?
What does reason
require of me
regarding my
treatment of
others?

21. Cons!
The possibility of
making a “right”
choice with bad
consequences.
There might be a
disagreement about
the principles involved
in the decision.
Possibility of a
conflict in duties.

22.  This philosophy stems from Aristotle and is based
on the virtues of the person making a decision.
 The consideration in virtue ethics is essentially
“what makes a good person” .
 Virtue ethics require the decision-maker to
understand what virtues are good for public
relations and then decisions are made in light of
those particular virtues.
Virtue Ethics

23. Main Principles of Virtue
Ethics

live your
life?

person do I
want to be?
What virtues
bring me
closer to this
goal
Is my behavior
consistent with
being a moral
person?

25. Cons!

consideration a
person’s change in
moral character.
The possibility of
making a “morally
right” choice with
bad consequences.
Possibility of a
conflict of virtues.
