The selected real-world scenario should reflect a significant ethical issue that resulted from a decision of an organizational leader, politician, or a group of stakeholders. Some general domains that the case can relate to include Harassment and Discrimination in the Workplace, Whistleblowing or Social Media Rants, Public Health and Safety, Ethics in Accounting Practices, Nondisclosure and Corporate Espionage, and Technology and Privacy Practices. Students should complete the following steps:
-Provide a detailed description of the case and define the specific ethical issue. Place an emphasis on key decision factors that collectively shaped the ethical issue over time, use the core concepts reviewed during the course!
-Identify the key stakeholders involved in the case. Briefly shed light on their individual power and influence in relation to the ethical issue.
-Select at least two (2) ethical perspectives (kantian, altruist, virtues, utilitarian, etc.) to assess and analyze the decision that generated the ethical issue. The emphasis should be placed on assessing consequences, rightness, and wrongness of the course of action.
-Generate an alternative decision to resolve the issue: Informed by the assessment in the previous step, develop a corrective decision.
-Justify the effectiveness of the corrective decision using the same two ethical perspectives utilized above.
-Offer 2-3 recommendations to complement and further support the proposed corrective course of action and its implementation. Validate the effectiveness of each recommendation using relevant insights from research/literature. The case research and analysis will be 3-5 pages (excluding cover page and reference page); APA writing conventions should be followed with a minimum of four (4) sources referenced and cited. In addition, students will present their key findings and outputs for each of the above steps.
