an organization faces. This step is followed by planning, which is crucial in developing a
detailed action plan to address the ethical dilemma effectively. There is also the implementation
step, which involves putting the plan into action and ensuring that all steps are followed
conscientiously. Evaluation is an essential step that allows stakeholders to assess the outcomes
and impact of the actions taken and whether they resolve the problem. There is also the
termination stage, which marks the end of the process once the ethical issue has been resolved in
the organization. Once all the steps are implemented and the ethical issue is resolved, an
organization conducts follow-up, which is a critical stage for monitoring the situation, ensuring
that the resolution remains effective, and addressing any new developments that may arise.
Through the application of these steps, organizations easily navigate ethical dilemmas with
