Rather each person has a different set of ethics and values that they have to take into effect when making decisions. When someone goes to an auction, the best way to proceed is to set a limit of how much one is willing to spend on a desired item. The same holds true, especially in this present environment of sellers' market of homes, when buying a house. If a person does not set a limit and keep to it, he/she will end up compromising his/her financial situation. The situation is similar when deciding what to do with confidential information, except that the stakes are much higher: ethics rank much higher in values than does money (or so it is hoped). A person has to honestly decide what limits he/she has with ethical considerations and stay true to those ideals, even if it may mean having to look for another job. If a person pays too much for a house, bills cannot be paid and compromises must be made for food, clothing, entertainment and the like. Even worse, if someone goes beyond one's personal limitations, he/she is not only compromising ideals but losing part of his/her integrity and self-esteem.

These simulations and other information I acquired in this course have been very useful, especially since I have had some business experience but not for a larger corporation where the issues are often more complex.

In terms of my personal statement and these simulations, the cultural considerations are easiest for me to understand and determine. Because of my own cultural background, I already have had to face some tough challenges. Being a minority presents one with a number of situations where difficult decisions must be made.

I have had little experience in the marketing area, so that I had to rethink how I would respond to such dilemmas. This impacted the way that I wrote my section on personal expectations. Especially in vague behavioral areas such as marketing, no one knows 100% how people will react -- for example, how does one know whether there will be an increase in crime if jackets are priced differently? Perhaps that crime wave would occur even if the jackets are lower priced or not occur even with more expensive items. That is why it is not possible to expect that I am always going to make perfect choices that make me proud. I can only expect to live as close to my ideals as possible, so I can look at myself in the mirror every morning.

Similarly, the concept of ethics made me confirm what I had written in my personal ethics statement. The values I have today may change over time as I gain new insights and meet different people. As noted, I will have to look at each individual situation as it arises to determine what will be best in the future -- not only for me, but for friends, family, and the world at large......
