Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ryan's situation presents an ethical dilemma. On one hand, he has the option to hire someone from a "name" family, or someone who may be more qualified. Choosing someone based on their family name rather than their qualifications is not fair to other candidates and could have negative consequences for the company. However, Ryan may feel pressure or obligation to hire the person with the "name" family due to social or personal connections. This kind of situation requires careful consideration of ethical principles like fairness, impartiality, and accountability.
