Faculty Description

This spreadsheet can help students work through a case study in problem solving and strategy development by having them intentionally integrate ethics into the decision making process. 

It asks them to identify:

  • What values will inform our conversations and deliberations with one another?
  • Do we have agreement on the problem to be solved?
  • List values that are important to the problem you are solving.
  • What is the most important value for this problem?
  • Do we have agreement on what constitutes a good solution?
Learning Outcomes

This spreadsheet was created by Jennifer Hancock to supplement her book - Applied Humanism: How to create more effective and ethical businesses.

The tool allows individuals or groups to identify shared values and to collaborate on problem solving and to decide together what a "good" solution to the identified problem is.
