Case Study on Ethical Dilemma_1
Surname 2Life is not always black and white, that is, right and wrong which we can discern without equivocation. Sometimes we are faced with making judgment between wrong and more wrong orunclear setup.1 Such situations call upon ethical reasoning to make a sound decision and to come up with solutions which though will not satisfy the parties involved, will be advantageous to parties involved.From the narrative or the case study, it's evident that ethics dilemma is active. The case study describes Harry as hard working and competent in his work. He develops software, tests it,and he is sure that the software is productive and can help solve problems for FABIO IT security.He goes further by offering the tested and proved software to FABIO through the manager Jill, but he meets rejection and discouragement to continue with his project. According to the scenario, Harry is sure of the importance and advantages that come with using his software and Jill who is Harry's boss (meaning Harry should take orders from Jill) is also sure that the software is dangerous. The ethical dilemma which Harry faces is whether to drop pursuing his project or disobey a direct order. Another moral dilemma is evident where Brockley has received an email from Iris the owner of the company to reinstate Harry. Brockley has a personal negative opinion about Harry which means he doesn't buy the idea of restoring him. He (Brockley) also has a high opinion of Jill who sacked Harry and thinks it was the right move to make. Now Brockley is faced with a decision whether to restore Harry or to stand his ground on his opinion of Harry and maintain thestatus quo. 11De George, Richard T.
