Ethical dilemmas in the form of ___ may occur where a manager takes a bribe or kickback or extraordinary gift in return for making a decision favourable to the gift giver.

A) discrimination
B) sexual harassment
C) conflicts of interest
D) customer confidence
E) organizational resources

Conflicts of interest arise when a person's private interests conflict with their professional obligations. In this scenario, the manager's acceptance of a bribe or kickback creates a conflict of interest as it compromises the manager's ability to make unbiased decisions in the best interest of the company or its stakeholders. This can lead to unethical decision-making and potentially harm the reputation and trust of the organization.
