For this assignment, please submit your essay to Canvas by the end of Sunday in Week 15.<\/p>\n
You are advised to structure each step (#1-4) in a separate section of your essay, with each section clearly labeled.<\/p>\n
This assignment is individual-based, and you should complete it yourself. Do NOT consult any of your classmates.<\/p>\n
Include your Professional Ethics Statement from GenEd Assignment #1 (step 2).<\/p>\n
You should revise it to incorporate instructor feedback (if any). <\/p>\n
Your statement needs to be complete (check on example statement shells provided in Assignment #1 instructions), but it does not need to include additional justifications.<\/p>\n
Choose a multinational corporation. Linkable list of multinational corporations: http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_multinational_corporations. You may choose a company outside this list. <\/p>\n
Include a link to the company\u2019s page of corporate ethics policy or code of conduct. Do not choose the company\u2019s corporate social responsibility policy\/report. <\/p>\n
Write a summary of the most salient information that describes the corporation\u2019s ethical policy or code of conduct.<\/p>\n
Summarize and synthesize the salient policies. If they have listed a great number of policies, organize your summary based on common themes you can identify rather than explaining the policies one by one.<\/p>\n
Use your own words. Be concise but not too concise (e.g., just listing the values). DO NOT COPY AND PASTE; PARAPHRASE IN YOUR OWN WORDS!<\/p>\n
Describe and evaluate how this multinational company\u2019s corporate ethical policies, values, and perspectives may differ across different cultural groups, or how this company\u2019s corporate practices and ethic statement addresses cultural and legal issues that may vary across nations or cultural groups.<\/p>\n
Stay focused on this company\u2019s policies; do not venture into culture differences in general or differences of this company versus other companies.<\/p>\n
Address specific policies and provide specific examples to support your claims.<\/p>\n
Compare and contrast this multinational company\u2019s corporate ethical policies, values, and perspectives versus your Professional Ethics Statement. <\/p>\n
How are they similar or different?<\/p>\n
Based on this comparison would you be a good fit to work for this company? Why or why not?<\/p>\n
