What failed in order to cause the 'perfect storm' that lead to the 2008 Global Financial Crisis? Did the leaders, managers and employees of financial institutions have a complete disregard for regulation, a breakdown in human ethics, a contempt for customers, or in fact ignorance to anything apart from profit and bonuses? If so, is increased regulation going to prevent this from happening again? Or is increasing regulation causing a dissociation in staff from ethical decision making and placing an almost co-dependent and ultimately unrealistic reliance on complance and legal departments, which is in turn setting the industry up to fail again?

This chapter addresses the lack of a framework that allows the generation of mechanisms and processes that benefit ethical decision making in organizations in order to promote civic virtue in its members. The authors explore how constructing spaces promote an honest and open dialogue among citizens, associations, business, and various levels of government. These spaces encourage the development of mechanisms and processes for social and personal benefit among its participants. The conceptual framework discussed is created by De la Cruz and Sasia (2013), named the Ethical Triangle Model. This model proposes at least three dimensions in an organization: legitimacy, motivation, and capacity. The proposed conceptual framework is dynamic and it is applicable to any organization. Future research must be made for testing the framework proposed here.

Afin de soutenir leurs membres qui sont aux prises fréquemment avec des problèmes de nature éthique, plusieurs associations professionnelles en relations publiques se sont dotées de modèles de prise de décision éthique qu’elles mettent à la disposition de leurs membres à des fins de référence et de formation continue. Cependant, comme nous le démontrons dans cet article, les modèles proposés sont nettement insuffisants lorsqu’il s’agit d’aborder des questions éthiques plus complexes. Ainsi, l’objectif de cet article est de fournir aux théoriciens et aux praticiens des outils conceptuels permettant de mieux penser cette complexité dans la prise de décision éthique. Pour répondre à cet objectif, nous présenterons, dans un premier temps, un cadre conceptuel qui comprend le champ d’application du modèle, ses bases théoriques, de même que des techniques avancées de pondération, de mise en équilibre des intérêts et de gestion de la réputation. Parallèlement à cet effort de théorisation, nous allons voir quelques applications de ce cadre conceptuel à travers l’analyse de cas pratiques. En guise de conclusion, nous allons faire une synthèse des points saillants et évoquer d’autres avenues pour la recherche sur ces questions. Mots-clés: éthique, prise de décision, relations publiques, réputation, gestion du risque.   To support their members who frequently face ethical issues, several professional associations in public relations have developed models of ethical decision-making that they make available to their members for reference and training. However, as we demonstrate in this paper, these models are clearly insufficient to address more complex ethical issues. Thus, the aim of this article is to provide theoreticians and practitioners with conceptual tools to better reflect this complexity in ethical decision-making. To meet this objective, we will first present a conceptual framework that includes the scope of the model, its theoretical foundations, as well as advanced techniques for weighting interests and reputation management. In addition to this theoretical effort, we will see some applications of this conceptual framework through case analysis. In conclusion, we will summarize the highlights and discuss other avenues for research on these issues. Keywords: ethics, decision-making, public relations, reputation, risk management.
