“…We also found inspiration for the concept we selected for our flexible integrative approach to consultation, Situational Consultation. Tannenbaum, Greene, and Glickman (1989) proposed the term Situational Management for the fixed preference of specific managerial styles depending on the field, the trade, the organization, and its context. Hersey and Blanchard (1993) took this a step further by recommending a more dynamic formulation of Situational Leadership.…”

“…Focusing on human judgment of options rather than using models of "correct" decision making, acknowledges the great amount of nonratlonal and idiosyncratic processes that mark human decision making (York, 1989). PCT has been used to study a number of human judgment situations including the decisions of arbitrators in wage cases (Bazerman, 1985), individual preferences of students for occupational environments (Kluth & Muchinsky, 1984), the evaluations of EEOC experts about possible sexual harassment (York, 1989), investment strategies (Slovic, 1969), and the ethical reasoning of organizational consultants (Tannenbaum, Greene, & Glickman, 1989).…”

This study examined the decision-making process involved when individuals consider being tested presymptomatically for two different diseases, Huntington's disease and HIV infection (including the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). Each disease has a long latency period between contracting the disease and developing obvious symptoms. Both illnesses follow a debilitating, catastrophic path often involving neurological and cognitive deterioration. No successful cure currently exists for either disease. Recent advances in medical diagnostic technology have presented patients with the opportunity to know if they will develop these illnesses. Positive test results may be devastating while no successful cure for the diagnosed disease is currently available. The circumstances under which an individual will choose to be tested for such an illness is examined in this study. Policy capturing techniques (PCT) were used to determine the contribution of the independent variables by covarying the five dichotomous variables to create 32 hypothetical diagnostic testing situations to assess the individual decision processes of 217 undergraduate subjects. These five independent variables were: transmission mechanism, health status of the subject, partner/parent carrier status, physician test recommendation, and reproductive plans. Results indicate significant main effects for each of the five factors for the whole group. The five variables combined to account for more than 65% of the variance in the diagnostic decisional choices from the hypothetical scenarios. Cluster analysis was performed on the Individual patterns of beta weights to determine if there were groups of subjects with similar decisions strategies. Seven clusters were found to represent different decisional patterns. Subject variables were of some use in describing the membership of each cluster. History of previous serious illness, plans for diagnostic testing, native language, and income were found to predict cluster membership and hence decision strategy. The implications of

Numerous customers and business owners trust that organizations ought to make a benefit as well as consider the social ramifications of their exercises. It is characterized that social duty as a business' commitment to amplify its positive effect and limit its negative effect on society. The current research study seeks to examine the influence of ethics and ethics in business on the organizational performance through the dimensions of the ethical reasoning process. The research employed the quantitative approach in which a self-structured questionnaire was the main tool of the data gathering. The sample of the study consisted of (262) leaders, managers, supervisors and employees from the Public Authority for Applied Education and Training in Kuwait. The results of the study indicated that relativism – as a variable of the ethical code – appeared to be the most influential variable of the ethical approach given that a person will consider what is ethical and what is not according to their own culture and stream of thinking. The study recommends that organization must realize the idea of ethics among its employees through the internal members including managers and supervisors.
