Problem
Describe a scenario where two of these responsibilities might conflict with one another. This scenario should involve someone in public service. Come up with a hypothetical situation as I did above if you would like. (Obviously, something different than my scenario) Or, you can use a real situation as well.
Be sure and clearly identify and explain which responsibilities you are referring to. Also, be sure and clearly explain how the conflict comes about. Given the situation, what should the public administrator do with regard to these competing interests? Where does the overriding responsibility rest?
