Consider an organization you were/are currently involved with. After providing a short overview of your organization, reflect on the Seven Levels of an Ethical Organization, found in the Gebler article and slide deck, and write a paper answering the following questions (not more than three pages - format of your choosing):
· What are the focus areas of your organization? For example, is your organization focused solely on the pursuit of a profit, or is it focused on corporate citizenship and stewardship, or somewhere in between?
· How do these focus areas relate to the Seven Levels of an Ethical Organization? What level(s) is your organization operating at?
· What challenges or opportunities does this present when leading Project Teams?
