PREPARE A PPT PRESENTATION: USE YOUR PREPARATION FROM ASSIGNMENT 5.
Reflecting on the concepts learned in the course, select and research the case study you selected and prepare a PowerPoint presentation according to the instructions below. You may use the citations provided with the case study listing as part of your research. It is expected you will use the course Lessons and eReserve required readings plus your own independent research of credible sources in support of this presentation.
Your research must include peer-reviewed and scholarly sources. (See Grading Rubric.) You may use internet sources for factual information about your company, but these should be the minority of your research. Use Trefry Library, Google Scholar, and similar library sources.
Your Week 5 Assignment with your instructor feedback has started you on this project. Your presentation should include the following, organized in well-designed slides with accompanying Speaker’s Notes or Audio and/or video narrative. Further instructions for required content are also below:
INSTRUCTIONS – YOUR PPT SLIDES
Bullet points on slides; explanatory narrative in Speaker’s Notes section of each slide. (Scroll to end to see help about Speaker’s Notes.)
Speaker’s notes are required to provide your PPT narrative, either in the notes spaces below the slides or by audio or video narrative.
The following covers the assignment content, building on your Week 5 worksheet, with 11 content slides. You may have additional content slides if you need them, but remember that the slides are key points supplemented by the speaker, not a paper distributed over slides. In addition are the Title, Agenda, and References slides.
Slide 1
Title slide
Slide 2
Agenda slide – This is an outline of the PPT topics
Slide 3
Introduce and describe the company (name, type of business, its corporate structure)
Key bullet points and image on slide – full details in Speaker’s Notes portion for slide
Slide 4
Tell the story of the facts of the case study leading up to the company’s decision, and then what happened.
Slide 5
State precisely and explain the dilemma, the company’s decision point, and choice made. Focus on the specific decision choice of your case study. Likely the company was involved in numerous actions.
Slide 6
Identify and explain the law(s) violated by the company’s action. Include the law’s requirements and purpose. Suggestion: include an example of a violation of the same law by another company.
Slide 7
Describe and explain the legal results for your case study company as a result of violation. For example, if individuals were criminally prosecuted, include that, and also what happened to the company itself. For example, did it end up in bankruptcy? Was it sold? If it survived, what did it do in the wake of the problem?
Slide 8
Summarize the harm caused by the company’s decision.
Harm to third parties – who were victims of the decision?
Harm to company & stakeholders.
Slide 9
Identify, define, and explain the ethical framework (you selected this in Assignment 5 — egoism, free market ethics, or utilitarianism) that is illustrated by the company’s decision and conduct. Include an example of how this ethical framework affects making a decision (an example other than this case study).
Slide 10
Explain how the decision and behavior of the company in this case study illustrates the ethical framework you defined and explained in the previous slide. Compare company to the example you gave in the previous slide.
Slide 11
Identify, define, and explain the alternative ethical framework (you selected this in Assignment 5 – deontology, ethics of care, or virtue ethics) that could have led to a different result for the company. Explain specifically how the company effectively could have employed this alternative framework. Include an example of how it works in making a decision (not the case study example).
Slide 12
The legal issues resulting from the company’s decision in this case study were not the only legal problems it had or could have had. Identify another, different legal issue relating to this company. Examples from your studies in the course are: contract disputes; tort claims; violation of a civil or criminal statute or regulation (which you must identify specifically); civil rights; employment issue; whistleblowing. It must be a different legal issue from the laws and regulations involved in the case study violations. You should have identified this in Assignment 5. Develop here.
Slide 13
Recommend: What is a take-away from this case study for exercise of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in management of business operations? Recommend and explain at least one CSR business practice for any business. In determining your recommendation consider the concepts we have studied this term. The company you have studied for this Assignment engaged in practices that ultimately touched or affected all aspects of its management. Your recommendation must be a specific practice for any business to apply. It is not sufficient to say something like “do it differently,” or “be ethical” or “corporately responsible.”
