Context
This assessment allows students to develop writing skills in ethics and sustainability scenarios and to explore the ways in which stakeholder theory and values management can be used by organisations, as tools in addressing economic, commercial, social and environmental problems.

Instructions

Group task
You will be allocated to a group of three students who, in module 5.1 (week 9) and module
(week 10) will prepare a short written scenario that describes one ethical or sustainability issue facing an organisation of your choice. A framework for writing the scenario will be provided in class, and available later as an online resource in Blackboard.

Task
You will then use the group scenario to prepare an individual report.
The scenario report will take the form of a business case, made to the senior management of the organisation, recommending how the issue should be dealt with. The report will employ either stakeholder theory or values management as an analytical tool.

Structure
1. Executive summary (100 words)
2. Introduction (100 words)

5. Analysis (750 words)
6. Identification of 3 alternative solutions (250 words)
7. Recommendations (100 words)
8. Conclusion (100 words)

Peer review
Each member of the group will review the contribution of other group members, to the task, using the Peer Review Form. You can find this form in the corresponding Assessment folder in Blackboard. The Peer Review Form focuses on the ways each group member behaves, in relation to ethics, throughout the activity. You will have to use one Peer Review Form, per group member, and collate these in a single document for submission. Your mark for this assessment will be based, equally, on the review provided by your peers.
