A1. The ethical dilemma in this scenario is whether or not to represent the
client despite their past offensive behavior.
If I chose to represent him, from my perspective, it would help the client’s
character grow positively. In addition, the client will become more
empathetic and take genuine accountability for his past actions. On the other
hand, if I choose to represent the client, it will appear as if I am accepting his
behavior and racist remarks, even though I am not in agreement with his
past comments. Also, it could damage my firm's reputation and business.
If I choose not to represent the client, I would be taking away an opportunity
for a person to grow, but I will hold up my values and views about
discrimination.
A2. Choosing to represent the customer has advantages and disadvantages.
Let's discuss the advantages of client representation. The firm's strength is
in our ability to empathize with those who have made mistakes in the past
and demonstrate our desire to recognize the positive in everyone. In
addition, we'll help the client rebuild their reputation and take accountability
for their racist remarks. Helping the client understand why many people
were affected by his comments will help him be empathetic, show remorse,
and make better decisions in the future. Also, as a PR manager, I would
strongly encourage the client to make a sincere public apology to everyone
who was affected by his racist comments. Taking accountability and wanting
to change to become a better person takes a lot of courage. The firm will
display empathy, and our firm believes in seeing the good in people
regardless of their status.
However, if I decide not to represent the client, I will send a message that
my firm is highly against any racist, hateful, and harmful behavior. In
addition, the firm will demonstrate to present clients, future clients, and
people using social media that we hold values against racist behavior very
high in our priorities as a PR firm. In contrast, choosing not to represent the
client, the firm and I will be revoking an opportunity for the client to grow
and show how regretful he is for his actions when he was younger, and how
many people he affected. Nevertheless, the firm will miss a chance to show
people that forgiveness is critical to the world and is essential for peace
within our communities.
