This week we focused on ethical considerations when starting a consulting business. Create a discussion post related to the concepts in the readings for this week.

Here are some ideas for your post:

• Provide one example of an ethical gray area or dilemma a consulting psychologist might encounter. (Examples can be found in the readings for this week.) Cite any standards from the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct that inform your reply. Note what makes this dilemma challenging. Explain why it is important to have ethical decision-making practices in place before such situations arise.
• Select a concept from your readings that you found particularly interesting, illuminating, or insightful. Discuss how you would apply what you learned to your professional life. Find other resources to support your thoughts.
