Doing Exercise – Ethical Dilemma
A member of staff working for a historic house charity contacts the Ethics Committee to seek advice in relation to recent behaviour from the incumbent family within their ancestral home.
A new exhibition, about a key family figure is in development and the conversations with the family about object choices and ‘oral histories’ are suggesting that they have a particular view about how this figure’s story should be told.
This is a complex relationship and they want to ensure that they are able to have a conversation that reflects the Code of Ethics but doesn’t damage the long-term relationship.
What advice or recommendations would you give?
This should take about 30 minutes.
Please record your insights in your notes.
