Learning Activity #1
Taking a Slow Boat Ride?
If you were advising a client contemplating expanding his or her business into the global arena, considering the parts of the world discussed in this week’s readings, which would you recommend and why. In your response, be certain to explain what is meant by global business and global ethics as you compare the advantages and disadvantages of the various locations. Your client also has asked you what he or she should be aware of with respect to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
Learning Activity #2
Ethics: A Personal Perspective, Part II?
In your first Learning Activity for week 1, you discussed some things that come to mind when you think of the word “ethicsâ€. Over the course of the past 8 weeks, has your view or conception of ethics changed in any way? If yes, is there a specific moment you can identify and describe that triggered the change (a reading(s), or posting(s), discussion(s) with colleague(s) for example)? If your view or conception did not change, why do you think this is the case?
After 8 weeks, how would you define an ethical dilemma, and ethical issue for someone planning to take this course? How can what you learned in the course be applied in your professional and/or personal life.
