Final Deliverable: Culture, Climate, and Ethical Decisions

 

In designing your presentation, refer to the guide on creating a narrated PowerPoint presentation. In addition, prepare a brief memo (no more than three pages) that outlines your key points.

 

Consider the following among the key things your presentation will need to address:

 

     Define concepts: Define organizational culture, climate, and ethical decisions and practices.

     Identify consequences: Describe the likely consequences of these concepts for an organization’s operations.

     Describe culture and climate: Describe the current organizational culture and climate.

     Describe approach to ethical decisions and practices: You may find it valuable to reflect upon your work in the organizational analysis, particularly your identification of your organization’s values.

      Assess implications for organization: Assess the implications of the above issues for your organization. For example, what does it mean that the organization has the type of culture and climate you identified? Again, think about your organizational analysis, particularly your identification of the organization’s mission and competitors.

 

      Recommend actions: Recommend actions your COO should consider implementing to facilitate a shift in the organization’s culture, climate, and ethical decision-making to ensure closer alignment with its organizational mission and values. If you don’t see a need for any changes, why? 

 

Step 2: Collect and Analyze Resources

Okay, now that you have a plan and an outline to guide you, it is time to start collecting resources.

Before beginning your research in business and management journals, however, there are some preliminary readings you should complete to help you develop a broad understanding of the key theories, concepts, and ideas that are relevant for this project.

As you read about each of the key concepts for this project -- organizational culture, organizational climate, and business/organizational ethics -- think about the implications for industries and organizations such as yours and for their leaders. Jot down ideas and questions you will need to research further in order to develop the expertise required to complete this project successfully. 

When undertaking your research for your presentation recall what you learned about good graduate-level research practices in DCL 600.  Be sure to consult with your professor if and when you have questions about the strategy and process you plan on using to find good resources for this project.

Once you have completed your reading and library research for this project, apply what you have learned to your organization, looking for:

  • any publicly available policies and procedures that provide helpful insights into how ethical conduct and desired organizational behaviors are managed
  • any nonconfidential sources where your CEO or other leaders may have written or spoken about these topics

Step 5: Final Deliverable: Narrated Presentation

The final step is to recommend actions that would ensure closer alignment between the organization's mission and values and its culture, climate, and approach to ethical decision-making. Once this final element is included in your report, then it should be ready to go.

Submit your narrated PowerPoint presentation and brief memo (which typically requires 3 pages or less to cover all your points) in your LEO Assignment Folder. 

Before you submit your assignment, review the competencies below, which your instructor will use to evaluate your work. A good practice would be to use each competency as a self-check to confirm you have incorporated all of them in your work.

  • 2.1: Identify and clearly explain the issue, question, or problem under critical consideration.
  • 2.2: Locate and access sufficient information to investigate the issue or problem.
  • 2.3: Evaluate the information in a logical and organized manner to determine its value and relevance to the problem.
  • 2.4: Consider and analyze information in context to the issue or problem.
  • 2.5: Develop well-reasoned ideas, conclusions or decisions, checking them against relevant criteria and benchmarks.
  • 5.1: Develop constructive resolutions for ethical dilemmas based on application of ethical theories, principles and models.
  • 9.3: Apply the principles of employment law for ethical practices and risk mitigation.
