Ethics Response

I think ethics and morals should be the basis for how we make decisions as leaders. Also they can be a soundboard for our previous choices because we usually learn from our past decisions if they are good ones or bad ones. The Christian ethics class we take for this minor teaches us about the different way people think about different ideals, such as the death penalty, abortion and other controversial topics in our society. People who are the leader need to know what the situation is that they are involved with and need to determine a way if it is ethical or not. The understanding of virtues and other concepts related to ethics helps people determine if the decision they are making is allowable. People need to think with their hearts when trying to make a decision, which is what morality is. If there was a business ethics course it would be more helpful because it would be more focused on the business part of leadership, like working in an organization.
