Assessment 1: Brief for Semester 1, 2023-24
GROUP PRESENTATION (30%)
Assessment 1 is a group presentation. Groups should consist of 5-6 members. Registration of the groups is done by your tutor & must be communicated by (alfaz@cecos.ac.uk).
You are required to prepare presentation slides (to be submitted via TurnItIn) and deliver group presentation (during the allocated time slot, which will be announced at a later date, but will take place in the W/C 17th July 2023).
For assessment 1:
- Identify a company and one ethical issue that the company has faced in the past. You can choose the same company that we used as an example during lectures/tutorials, but you cannot use the same ethical issue discussed during lectures/tutorials.
- Use the four-step approach to solving an ethical dilemma to analyse the ethical issue faced by the company.
- Discuss how did the ethical issue faced by the company affect different stakeholders (both internal and external).
- Discuss how company dealt with the ethical issue and in your opinion, how the ethical issue could have been avoided, which parts of the company’s response were appropriate and which should have been done differently.
