Introduction
As I had been attended the Business Ethics class, I learn something about crisis. On my own knowledge, crisis is some kind of unexpected event happens that we couldn’t predict at all. Crisis could bring us a lot of effects. For example we would experience depression or stress when we met a serious crisis. There are few types of crisis. Natural disaster, industrial accident, product or service failure, public relations, business and management and also legal are the different types of crisis. Natural disaster is the crisis that we so called acts of God, for example flood and earthquake. Industrial accident is happened among the factory. High produces factory will always cause fire, toxic release and also construction collapse. Definition of product or service failure is the product recall, communications failure, systems failure, machine failure causes massive reduction in capacity, faulty or dangerous goods, and health scare related to the product of industry. Public relations mostly happen in a company. For example, pressure group or unwelcome media attention, adverse publicity in the media and removal or loss of Chief Executive Office. Example of crisis that happen among business and management is hostile takeover, sudden strike by workforce or that of a key supplier, major customer withdraws its support, competitor launches new product, and suddent shortfall in demand. Product liability, health scare and employee or other fraud is related to legal crisis. As a short conclusion, we need to learn on crisis management in order to prevent a sudden crisis happen to us. It’s so important that we learn how to manage the crisis not only for individuals, but also for all people nearby around us. 1. What is the nature of crisis?

    In post-war Berlin during November of 1948, various conflicts between the big Western Powers and the Soviet Union created tension between the two dominant powers. The United Nations created more tension than what was already present when they called on the leaders of Russia, United States, Great Britain, and France to “enter into “immediate conversations” to end the Berlin dispute” (UN ‘Big Crisis’). The United Nations tried to step in and demand the ending of the Berlin dispute, but this created tension between the Soviet Union and the big Western Powers because they both vetoed the decision of the Security Council. This demonstrates that neither side was going to surrender; therefore, the countries involved became tenser. In London, it was believed that the Berlin problem with the Soviet Union is only “one of many symptoms of the existing world tension” (UN ‘End Crisis’).…

    Law enforcement has long since upgraded from horses to cruisers, from call-boxes to radios, and from revolvers to semiautomatic pistols, but equipment is not the only aspect of policing that has changed. With each innovation and improvement in equipment, the training and mindset of the officers who serve their communities must also change. With these changes comes increased exposure to stress and traumatic events. It is incumbent upon visionary administrators to find ways to provide for the psychological well being of their law enforcement officers so that these officers can continue to provide their valuable service. This article demonstrates three aspects of CISM: how the system applies recognized crisis intervention principles to the high-risk/high-exposure population of law enforcement; how its interventions effectively encourage personnel to…

    The steps taken in each scenario was to identify first the ethical problems or issues at the center of each conflict. Each case involves clashes of ethics and before any resolution can be implemented, each ethical dilemma must be pinpointed. The second step was to identify each of the primary stakeholders of each crisis. Stakeholders are the persons of interest in each case that would be directly affected by any solution chosen to end the situation. Responsibilities and duties for each stakeholder are considered followed by a review of which options are the best choice to resolve the crisis. The selection of the best decision was chosen based on the criteria of fulfilling the duties to all stakeholders in each case. Final choices were viewed using the results lens, relationship lens, and the reputation lens for comparison.…
