Why ethical reasoning? Almost every decision we make has ripple effects. This is why it is important to slow down and consider the best course of action, knowing that our decision affects more than just ourselves. Introducing an ethical reasoning strategy at the point of decision-making helps us pause, reflect and ask questions before acting. Questioning helps us suspend our initial impulses that can be loaded with untested assumptions and bias.
