Ethics And Organization For Brilliant Answers Only

 

  • Instructions Use the same organization as in previous week’s projects. Last week, you completed the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis for your organization. Hopefully, you have begun researching potential social causes, issues, or nonprofits for your company to adopt.  As you consider your options, select three or four possible candidates (social causes) and evaluate whether the alternatives you come across fit with your company’s mission, vision, and ethical framework, as well as any existing social responsibility efforts. Finally, select the new cause that will build upon your company’s strengths. Will selecting this cause support the responsibility owed to your stockholders and stakeholders?  Tasks: Propose your top three potential social causes for your organization and why your selected social cause or issue is a good match with your chosen corporation for creating a corporate social responsibility (CSR) campaign. You will want to be sure that you cover the following items in your report:  Evaluate how each of your top three social causes do or do not meet your company’s mission, vision, and ethical framework, as well as, any on-going social responsibility efforts. Defend why the social cause you chose is a good fit with your corporation. Assess how Stockholder Theory and Stakeholder Theory impacted your final selection (Week 1 reading) Justify which personal ethical framework impacted your final selection and how it impacted your selection (Week 2 reading) Analyze the internal and the external ethical impacts of your selection (Week 3 reading) Submission Details: Submit your paper in a 5- to 7-page Microsoft Word document, using APA style.

  • Instructions Throughout the course, your project assignments will recommend and defend a new corporate social responsibility (CSR) project for a global, publicly traded organization.  In Week 1, you will select a global, publicly traded organization. (Hint: The Fortune 500 list of companies is a good source for this kind of information).  You will need to research the chosen organization through primary and secondary sources and investigate the organization’s mission and vision statement and code of ethics. Begin thinking about a potential social cause you might recommend for the organization (that is different than any current social cause the organization pursues).  For example, you may decide that you want to select Google as your global, publicly traded organization. In doing research on Google, you find that it supports a number of charities, including improving computer science education, empowering women and girls, and fighting trafficking and child abuse. However, for this session-long project, you should identify another cause for Google to support beyond what it is already doing.  Tasks:  Citing research from a variety of sources, including the company’s website, social media sites, company blogs, industry and trade sources, and other sources, provide a summary of the organization, including the organization’s products or services, customer or client base, areas of operation or distribution, history, main competition, and the organization’s current situation. Analyze the mission, vision, and values of this organization. Evaluate the ethical principles and policy under which the organization works. Defend the reasons (e.g., personal, professional) and rationale leading you to select the organization. What drew you to this particular organization?

  • Instructions Use the same organization selected in week 1. This week’s assignment involves two steps.  First, analyze your organization’s operations by conducting a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis. Pay particular attention to your company’s strengths and opportunities because you will try to identify a social cause that meshes well with them. Think back to the Google example. One of Google’s social causes is improving computer science education. Since Google is at the forefront of advances in information technology, it makes sense that one of its social concerns is improving computer science education. In supporting this cause, Google is not only being socially responsible but is potentially working to educate its future customers and workforce. Thus, focusing on areas where your company excels and then finding a social cause that can benefit from your company’s strengths can also ultimately help your company!  Second, consider how shareholder and stakeholder theories of ethics will impact your selection of a target social cause for your corporation to pursue. What responsibility does your company owe to its stockholders and stakeholders? Will pursuing a social responsibility program detract from your responsibilities to these two groups? Any program that you implement will redirect resources toward the social cause and away from your stockholders and stakeholders. Is this ethical?  Tasks:  Create your organization’s SWOT analysis. Justify each item in your analysis. Evaluate the ethical implications of pursuing a social responsibility program in terms of your stockholders and stakeholders. What is the personal framework you are using to make these ethical decisions for your company? Submission Details: Submit your paper in a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document, using APA style.
