Direction and Assignment

1. Please review the following video. Brian Johnson discusses an old book that is still popular today. This is a very person-centered book on where wisdom comes from…it’s about developing yourself. It profoundly influenced me as a young girl, and through time, changed the circumstances of my life. Remember what I have said: You can manage your life, or you can lead it. Looking back on my life, I believe I lead it, even when I didn’t realize it. It felt like “barely managing it” at times when I was young. But now I realize that some of the yardsticks I was using to measure myself were invalid. I was just too young and inexperienced to realize that. 

The Search for One’s Personal Best and Its Corporate – and Global Impacts  watch the video – bonus – a fill copy of the book is appended below.

2. Carefully review the following slide deck.

LCBleadership.pptx (1032780)

Assignment 2: Challenges in the Business Environment

Due Week 9 and worth 330 points

As you have explored in this course, ongoing challenges in the global business environment are mostly attributed to unethical business practices, failure to embrace technology advancements, and stiff competition among businesses. Imagine that you have been appointed as the Chief Compliance Officer of a Fortune 500 company and must prepare a presentation for your suppliers regarding your Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver via email, webinar, etc.

For this assignment, you are to create a presentation using PowerPoint (or other equivalent software) and your research on the Fortune 500 company from Assignment 1. In your presentation, you are to summarize the important changes and explanations regarding the code of conduct that you would communicate via email, webinar, etc. The specific requirements are listed below.

PowerPoint

Presentation Requirements:

Create a six to eight (6-8) slide PowerPoint presentation in which you:

1. Summarize your chosen company’s Supplier Responsibility information.

2. In your own words, explain how each aspect of your Supplier Code of Conduct is committed to ethical business practices and society social responsibility.

3. Discuss your company’s stance on each of the following areas:

• Empowering Workers
• Labor and Human Rights
• Health and Safety
• The Environment
• Accountability

4. Identify the key ways that your company’s Code of Conduct has changed since last year.

5. Examine the manner in which your company’s Supplier Code of Conduct helps the organization operate as a socially responsible organization.

6. Provide detailed speaker notes of what you would say if you were delivering the presentation.

7. Submit a reference page with at least two (2) quality references, from within the last 2 years, that you used for this PowerPoint presentation. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.

Your PowerPoint presentation must follow these formatting requirements:

• Format the PowerPoint presentation with headings on each slide and three to four (3-4) relevant graphics (photographs, graphs, clip art, etc.), ensuring that the presentation is visually appealing and readable from 18 feet away. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
• Include a title slide containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The title and reference slides are not included in the required slide length.

Specific Library Resources to help you get started:

• Access the Strayer UniversityOnline Library here.
• Introductory Search – Use the home page’s search box to keyword search many, but not all, databases.
• Targeted Search – Scroll to the bottom of the page for an A to Z listing of all databases. Float over each link to see a description of the database and click to load that particular database’s custom search page. Custom search pages include both basic and advanced search options.
• These databases are only partially searchable through the general search bar. You will have to search for them individually to find resources for your paper.
  • Nexis Uni – This contains legal information and would be useful to search for court cases in which your company has been involved.
  • Video Explaining Nexis Uni
• Research Starters are like the academic version of Wikipedia. Search on a topic to get an overview with links to other information within that topic. It will help you get ideas for keywords for your own searches and what you need to know in order to successfully write your paper.
  • Research Starters – Business
  • Library Databases – Research Starters

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Evaluate the influences of changing economic, political, social, cultural, and technological forces on business and society.
