Discussion 2: Research Weekly Concepts for Ethical and Social Responsibility

Post no later than Day 4 (Thursday)
Responses to be completed by Day 7 (Sunday)

For Discussion 2, please visit the Walden Library databases or select a recognized business publication such as Forbes, Business Week, Harvard Business Review, Entrepreneur, and so forth. Select an article addressing ethical practice in global companies; building a culture of ethical values; empowering stakeholders to follow ethical principles; or another topic that relates to these ideas. For example, you could explore topics such as examples of firms that are known for corporate social responsibility; examples of business ethical failures; the impact of transformational leadership on creating a “best practices” business; strategic approaches to growth.

Following APA style and formatting guidelines, summarize the article into approximately 300 words (do NOT copy the article), and explain the knowledge you gained from it. Post to Discussion 2 by Day 4. Include a link to the original article so your colleagues can read it.

Please use the Week 5 Discussion 2 Template located in the Week 5 Learning Resources to draft your post.

Engage in class discussions of the article, starting no later than Day 4, and continuing until Day 6. All discussion posts must be complete by Day 7. In addition to your initial post, respond a minimum of three times (100–125 words) over a minimum of three days.

To earn full points, full engagement in this discussion requires an initial post and active substantive responses with colleagues over a minimum of 3 days, and preferably every day.
