During morning rollcall, MSgt Ledger smells alcohol on SSgt Morgan so she calls Morgan into her office. Ledger says, "Morgan, it smells like you have been drinking." Morgan replies with slurred speech, "I went to a party last night and got home a little late; however I feel fine." Ledger replies, "I should report you, but we are shorthanded today and we are going to be busy so I need you here at work. Get something for your breath and limit your interaction with our customers." This scenario BEST identifies ________________________and its impact on unit effectiveness. a. Ethical Relativism b. Loyalty Syndrome c. Worry Over Image a. Ethical Relativism RATIONALE: Rather than reporting Morgan for being possibly drunk on duty, Ledger allows Morgan to remain at work. This is ethical relativism, which, according to the Ethical Leadership chapter, is "determining something to be right (or wrong) based on our personal feelings and values rather than on military rules, regulations, and codes of conduct." Although Ledger knows that allowing to remain at work is wrong, she allows him to remain at work.
