Lastly, I believe that an ethical culture comprises effective leadership guided by values like honesty, fairness, and trustworthiness. Knowingly and unknowingly, leaders inspire their followers to act as they do. Subordinates are more likely to follow the actions of their leaders as opposed to their words. As such, an ethical culture empowers leaders to initiate ethical decision-making as an example to other employees.

Business ethics denotes the acceptable standards for gets perceived as morally right and wrong conduct within the business environment (Sroka & Lorinczy, 2015). A lot of people have trouble separating between law and morality with respect to business ethics. Even though these two concepts are linked, they are quite different. The link between the two emanates from the fact that business ethics enhance compliance with the law by denoting acceptable modes of conduct that are beyond governmental control. Law partially defines conduct, and such an aspect means there are certain areas beyond the control of the law (Sroka & Lorinczy, 2015). For instance, an action that might be perceived as unethical might not be illegal.

Sexual harassment

Answer preview

This issue relates to Module 3: Job Discrimination under sexual harassment. Jane’s story is not unique because, according to Johnson et al. (2018), approximately 35% of working women have experienced sexual-related harassment at least once over their careers. This number jumps to 45% for women working in technical fields that men majorly dominate. Additionally, about 55% of women in the senior management levels also experience some form of sexual harassment because men majorly surround them. Johnson et al. (2018) adds that according to the complaints received by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 2018, about 16% of the total sexual harassment cases were from men. This means that even men also experience sexual harassment. Organizations need to develop strict policies and measures to prevent any form of sexual harassment in the workplace. The employees should also be made aware of what sexual harassment is and ways to avoid it. Decisive and swift actions should be taken on all sexual harassment reported cases after thorough investigations have been done.

Voyages into space are celebrated all around the world. The United States is one of the countries that has managed to organize successful expeditions into space. Despite this, the country has had its fair share of disastrous voyages, with the most catastrophic one being the Challenger’s explosion barely one minute after taking off. According to Wall (2016), traveling to and from space poses numerous risks and dangers. Wall (2016) argues that the Challenger disaster was the first of its ilk in the country. Several wrong decisions played a pivotal role in this disaster. According to Wall (2016), the mission was affected by launch fever, as people struggled to get this mission going on time and get other missions going. This approach contributed to the Challenger disaster. Wall (2016) points out that the shuttle exploded due to the failure of the rubber O-ring seal located on the right-hand solid rocket booster. This failure allowed hot gas to escape and destroy the orbiter’s external fuel tank and the gears attaching the booster to the tank. Wall (2016) posits that several flaws characterized the decision to launch the shuttle.
