ANSWER
1.I would approach my friend by expressing my concerns for his long-term success and
reputation in business. I might start by asking him about his goals and values as a
businessman, emphasizing the importance of integrity and trustworthiness in building
sustainable relationships with clients. Then, I would gently point out the potential
consequences of prioritizing short-term gains over ethical practices, such as damaging his
reputation, losing loyal customers, and facing legal repercussions. Rather than accusing
him directly, I would appeal to his sense of responsibility and encourage him to reconsider
his approach, suggesting alternative strategies that prioritize honesty and fairness while
still achieving financial success.
3. I would listen to my younger brothers and sisters with an open mind and genuine
concern for their perspectives. Their negative reaction to my business practices suggests
that my advertising approach may be harmful or inappropriate, especially for younger
audiences. I would reflect on their feedback and consider whether my actions align with my
values and responsibilities as a business owner. Ultimately, I would prioritize the well
being and ethical development of the younger generation over potential profits, and I
would be willing to adapt my advertising strategies accordingly to ensure that they are
respectful and age appropriate.
4. Producing products like tobacco and alcohol, despite their profitability, raises serious
ethical concerns due to their known health risks and potential for harm. As a businessman,
I have a responsibility to consider the broader impact of my actions on society, including
the health and well-being of consumers. By choosing to prioritize profits over public health,
I would be neglecting this responsibility and contributing to the perpetuation of harmful
behaviors and addictions. Therefore, from an ethical standpoint, producing such products
cannot be justified solely on the basis of profitability. Instead, I would explore alternative
business opportunities that align with my values and do not compromise the health and
safety of others.

GABRIELIAN ETHICS
Chapter 3
GUIDE QUESTIONS
1. The guiding Ethical Principles of GABRIELIAN align closely with a blend of Transformational
and Servant Leadership styles, reflecting a leader who embodies both sets of values. For instance,
the principle of Service emphasizes leaders prioritizing the needs of their followers, empowering
them to develop and enhancing organizational productivity. Additionally, ethical behaviors like
Respect, Justice, Honesty, and Community are integral to the practice of Servant or
Transformational Leadership within the GABRIELIAN framework. These principles foster a
culture of mutual respect, fairness, transparency, and community engagement, essential for
effective and ethical leadership.
2. My qualities as a man of God in accordance to the Gabrielian ethics are; Honest, Compassion,
Humility, Fairness, Accountability, Courage, Inclusivity, and Integrity
3. The five principles are the following:
● Beneficence: This principle emphasizes doing good for others. It guides us to ensure that
our thoughts and actions result in benefits for others, promoting kindness and altruism.
● Least Harm: The principle of least harm focuses on minimizing the negative impact of
our actions on others. It recognizes that even with good intentions, actions may
inadvertently cause harm.
● Autonomy: Autonomy emphasizes respecting the freedom and self-determination of
individuals. It encourages us not to impose our beliefs or decisions on others but to allow
them the freedom to make choices based on their own values and preferences.
● Non-Violence or Peace: This principle advocates for non-violence and peace, rejecting
aggression and conflict as means of resolving differences. It underscores the importance
of promoting harmony, understanding, and cooperation in society, fostering a culture of
peaceful coexistence.
● Justice: Justice requires that our actions are fair and equitable to all parties involved. It
calls for impartiality, fairness, and adherence to ethical standards in decision-making
processes.
While beneficence focuses on doing good, least harm aims to minimize negative consequences, autonomy
respects individual freedom, non-violence promotes peace, and justice ensures fairness for all. These
principles collectively contribute to ethical conduct and decision-making, guiding us to consider the well-
being and rights of others while upholding fundamental values of compassion, fairness, and respect.
4. The meaning of the guiding ethical principle for me is, In a GABRIELIAN leadership framework,
leaders are expected to embody both Transformational and Servant Leadership qualities.
Transformational Leadership focuses on inspiring and motivating followers to achieve higher
levels of performance and personal growth. Servant Leadership, on the other hand, emphasizes
serving others and putting their needs first. This suggests that the principle of Service, where
leaders prioritize the needs of their followers, is central to GABRIELIAN leadership. By
fulfilling these needs, leaders empower their followers, enabling them to develop and contribute
effectively to the organization's success.
5. Ethics as a man of God means, as a man of God, you think good thoughts, say good things, and
DO good things.By doing these simple things, you can show how a man of God does things
according to the scriptures.
6. The conflict of moral principles refers to situations where two or more ethical values or principles
come into conflict, making it challenging to determine the right course of action. This conflict can
arise when ethical principles or values suggest different actions or outcomes, leading to a moral
dilemma.
7. Telling a lie involves deliberately stating falsehoods with the intent to deceive, while hiding the
truth entails withholding information or omitting relevant details to avoid revealing the complete
truth. Both actions involve deception and are considered against moral principles because they
undermine trust, integrity, and transparency. Telling a lie directly provides misinformation, while
hiding the truth obscures important information, potentially leading to misunderstandings and
hindering informed decision-making. Ethically, honesty, transparency, and integrity are crucial
values that guide behavior in navigating situations where truthfulness and disclosure are
paramount.
8. A dilemma is a challenging situation where one must choose between conflicting options, often
involving moral beliefs like duty, rights, principles, and values. These conflicts arise when the
fulfillment of one moral belief may contradict or compromise another, requiring careful ethical
consideration and decision-making. Resolving dilemmas involves balancing competing moral
principles, evaluating potential consequences, and making decisions that align with core values
while considering ethical guidelines and the greater good.
9. Dilemmas arise when there is a lack of agreement or clarity on the right course of action in a
given situation. This occurs when different perspectives, values, or ethical frameworks lead to
conflicting conclusions about what is morally acceptable or preferred. In such cases, individuals
or groups may face difficult choices and ethical challenges as they navigate divergent opinions
and strive to make decisions that are ethically sound and defensible.

49. a. You think that the safety of workers is not being taken care of by the construction firm.
50. e. Should you report your apprehensions or should you keep quiet?
1: The junior engineer faces a dilemma here. On one hand, his executive engineer, who has more
experience and authority, tells him to ignore the problem due to personal preferences. On the other hand,
the junior engineer understands that ignoring the issue could lead to structural weaknesses and potential
hazards in the future. He may choose not to follow his executive engineer's advice because his primary
duty is to ensure the safety and integrity of the construction project. However, his decision may also
depend on the organizational culture, his relationship with the executive engineer, and the potential
2: In this scenario, the junior engineer should prioritize the safety and quality of the construction work.
Even though the executive engineer may have more experience, the junior engineer's concerns about the
long-term impact on the structure's integrity should not be dismissed. He should consider discussing the
matter further with higher authorities or relevant stakeholders to address the issue effectively without
related to safety or ethical issues. Keeping quiet in such situations could lead to serious consequences, as
seen in the example of the laborer falling from the scaffolding. Remorse may indeed follow if the junior
engineer realizes that his silence contributed to a preventable tragedy. Therefore, it is crucial to speak up
4: In the case of power shortages and supply failures, the responsibility falls on both the distribution
companies and the authorities overseeing them. As a junior engineer, one may not have direct control over
such issues but can play a role in highlighting and addressing infrastructure or operational shortcomings.
It is essential to document and report these issues to the relevant authorities for corrective action. Ignoring
or neglecting such problems can lead to public discontent and serious consequences, as seen in the
Lesson Application:
These scenarios demonstrate the importance of ethical decision-making, accountability, and proactive
action. The CDSGA Gabrielian Philosophy emphasizes commitment, dedication, and service to others,
aligning with the principles of righteousness, selflessness, and care. In these situations, the lessons from
the Gabrielian philosophy can guide individuals to prioritize integrity, safety, and serving the community's
best interests. Teamwork and collective responsibility, as highlighted in the motto and teamwork slogan,
reinforce the idea that individual actions contribute to collective success or failure, emphasizing the need
for ethical conduct and mindful decision-making in professional and personal endeavors.
