CLASSIC ETHICAL MORAL

DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA
 DILEMMA
A dilemma is a situation where a person is
forced to choose between two or more
conflicting options, neither of which is
acceptable.
 CLASSIC DILEMMA
A classic dilemma is a choice between two or
more alternatives, in which the outcomes are
equally undesirable, or equally favorable.
 EXAMPLE OF
CLASSIC DILEMMA
Wondering whether or not to
shift in a new course.
 ETHICAL DILEMMA
An ethical dilemma is a problem in the decision-
making process between two possible options,
neither of which is absolutely acceptable from
an ethical perspective.
 EXAMPLE OF
ETHICAL DILEMMA
You are hanging out with a friend
who isn’t very popular. You run
into other friends who invite you
to hang with them, but they do
not want your friend to come.
 MORAL DILEMMA
A moral dilemma often forces the individual to
decide which option he or she can live with, but
any outcomes are extremely unpleasant no
matter what.
EXAMPLE OF MORAL
DILEMMA
Where there are only 10 spaces in the lifeboat,
but there are 11 passengers on the sinking ship.
A decision must be made as to who will stay
behind.
THREE LEVELS OF
MORAL DILEMMA
1 PERSONAL / INDIVIDUAL

2 ORGANIZATIONAL

3
STRUCTURAL
PERSONAL/INDIVIDUAL

A personal/individual dilemma are

those experienced and resolved on
the personal level.
 EXAMPLE OF
PERSONAL/INDIVIDUAL
Jay, Mark's twin, receives dialysis due
to kidney failure. He can donate one
of her kidneys to her brother in order
for him to survive because Mark has
healthy kidneys and they match, but if
Mark donated his kidney, Mark might
also suffer in the long run. But her
brother would suffer and pass away if
he does not donate one of her
kidneys.
Now Mark is facing moral
dilemma, this is an individual
moral dilemma in which
he needs to choose from the
two choices:
Donate her kidney to her
brother
Or let Jay suffer from
her illness
 ORGANIZATIONAL
A organizational dilemma refers to ethical cases encountered and
resolved by social organizations. This also can resolve with the help of
other people.
An organizational dilemma is a puzzle possed by the dual necessities of a
social organization and member’s self-interest.
It may exist between personal interests and organizational welfare or
between group interests and organizational well-being.
Organizational dilemmas may likewise occur in business, school, medical,
and public sector.
THE FOUR COMMON
ORGANIZATIONAL
DILEMMA
 BUSINESS

A common cause of ethical

dilemma in business is that
often the personal interests
of the employees do not
align with the interests of
the management and
organization as a whole.
 SCHOOL
There is an organizational
dilemma in a Catholic school
between its goal to give quality
education for the poor and so
must charge the lowest tuition
fee possible and yet to keep
quality faculty the school must
raise their salary and
consequently, must raise tuition.

 MEDICAL
Ms. Brown, a 74-year old woman who is seriously ill of
metastatic June cancer. Ms. Brown completed a full course of
radiation therapy as well as chemotherapy for treatment of her
cancer, and she is now hospitalized with severe shortness of
breath and pneumonia. Her physician has managed the symptoms
associated with the lung disease including chest pain, fever,
infection, and respiratory distress, but believes that there are
no other options available to aggressively treat the underlying
cancer. Both Ms. Brown and her husband clearly state that they
“want everything done...”
 PUBLIC SECTOR
A small IT company recently learned
that a minor data breach occurred on
its database servers, allowing
hackers to access information about
the customers' last names. The firm
will be compelled by law to notify the
government security agencies of the
data breach, although doing so would
result in significant fines.
Because of this, both the
company and the employees will
have to deal with serious
financial penalties.
The company is faced with
an ethical dilemma on
whether they should follow
the law or instead
prioritize their financial
goals or interest.
 STRUCTURAL
A structural dilemma pertains to cases involving
networks of institutions and operative
theoretical paradigms. As they usually
encompass multi-sectoral institutions and
organizations, they may be larger in scope and
extent than organizational dilemmas.

STRUCTURAL
