Synopsis

"More than One Right Answer: Ethical Dilemmas for Business Students makes use of ethical dilemmas confronting today's college students to build the skills they need to confront professional ethical dilemmas in a business environment. It presents ""College Situations"" that prompt questioning and critical thinking, and then asks students to apply what they have learned to ""Business Scenarios"" .

The book includes student-Generated cases that address actual situations the students encountered. These deal with topics such as sexual harassment, roommate interactions, academic dishonesty, and theft on campus. ""Reflection Questions"" in the text promote discussion, while ""Academic Growth Questions"" help students improve their overall academic experience.

These questions, in combination with the cases, provide opportunities to generate multiple real-World solutions. They prepare students to move on to the professional scenarios, which are also reality-Based. Students are encouraged to develop several alternatives when problem-Solving, and to recognize that there is no single ""Right"" answer.

Extensively class-Tested, More than One Right Answer is designed specifically with business courses in mind, but can be used in any course on applied ethics. the text is ideal for classes in business ethics.
