In today's world, it is undeniable that we are facing a moral decline. Government leaders prioritize profits over the well-being of their citizens, companies prioritize profits over health and safety, and technology poses significant risks to society with little to no repercussions for those responsible. This has led to a struggle for individuals in their personal lives, such as how to protect their children online, make informed consumer choices, and handle misconduct at work and at home.

Ethics are becoming increasingly complex and difficult to understand. However, in The Power of Ethics, Susan Liautaud offers a solution. She demonstrates how ethics can be used to make positive decisions that can have a ripple effect on our families, communities, workplaces, and the wider world, offering unprecedented opportunities for good.

Liautaud, with two decades of experience as an ethics advisor to corporations, academic institutions, and non-profit organizations, provides clarity and guidance through a straightforward four-step process for everyday decision-making. She explains the six forces driving virtually every ethical choice we face and helps us develop a clear point of view, speak with authority, and make effective decisions.

The book explores some of the most challenging dilemmas of our time, such as the ethics of artificial intelligence, the role of business in society, and the impact of technology on privacy and security. Liautaud provides insights and solutions to these dilemmas, helping us to navigate the complex ethical landscape and make decisions that align with our values and principles.

In conclusion, The Power of Ethics is an essential guide to creating a better world for yourself and others. It provides clarity, guidance, and solutions to the ethical challenges we face in our personal and professional lives. By applying the principles outlined in the book, we can make decisions that are ethical, responsible, and impactful. Let us embrace the power of ethics and work together to create a world that is fair, just, and sustainable for all.
