Eespind to the following statements . include examples1. "Even well-intentioned people can stumble into ethical minefields if they do not keep their ethical antennae up and guard against errors in judgment that are commonly madeerrors that, indeed, people are often predisposed to make. Good intentions are necessary, but they are not sufficient for professionals who desire to act ethically" 2. "According to Prentice (2007), decisions that have an ethical aspect are subject to various biases in how people see the situation and how they tend to behave.

I definitely agree with this statement from Prentice. Most of our ethical decision making ability is affected by our own personal values or visions. The three components of the Fraud Triangle is opportunity, pressure (also known as incentive or motivation) and Rationalization (sometimes called justification or attitude). I use fraud as the example because unethical behavior is fraud. If someone has pressure on them to excel, they may use unethical practices. If someone can rationalize unethical behavior, they would more than likely commit fraud or present unethical behavior".

3. "Leading by example is a very good tenet to live by. This creates a person that others can look up to. Your chosen quote from Prentice reminds me of a phrase my former company President used to say, and that was to always choose the light side of grey. When presented with a choice that has ethical challenges, it's best to choose the option that will keep you in the best position professionally and morally".
