An ethical dilemma (ethical paradox or moral dilemma) is a problem in the decision-making process
between two possible options, which are not straightaway absolutely acceptable from an ethical
perspective. It is a situation of conflict between right and wrong or somewhat correct or incorrect in
business on the grounds of moral philosophy.

The following approaches to solve an ethical dilemma were deduced:

 Refute the paradox (dilemma): The situation must be carefully analyzed. In some cases,
the existence of the dilemma can be logically refuted.
 Value theory approach: Choose the alternative that offers the greater good or the lesser
evil.
 Find alternative solutions: In some cases, the problem can be reconsidered, and new
alternative solutions may arise.
