Mission, Vision, and Ethics in Organizations Ant

Thank you for submitting your next assessment in our course! The paper looks great so far and I look forward to reviewing the content against the criteria below. I reviewed the SafeAssign report for your paper and some of your content matches other sources word for word without being marked as paraphrases or direct quotes. Here is one example of the matching content: "For instance, its software is used to improve the corporate managerial systems of other companies. " Another example is "The firm’s core values act as the guiding principles that ensure that the company creates a culture that aligns with its vision and mission statement." Normally, I would need to file an academic honesty report for such instances, but I want to give you this one-time opportunity to cite all direct quotes rather than file a report. I know this was not intentional; nonetheless, an attempt to cite them must be made prior to moving forward with grading the paper.

Please revise your paper to cite all direct quotes per APA guidelines, then resubmit the paper for grading. Do not just add the in-text citation at the end of your answer; cite each direct quote with quotations and follow it immediately with an in-text citation. The citations don't need to be perfect because I will review the paper afterwards and provide more guidance. Please also decrease the amount of research in your paper to less than 30%.

The feedback below is just a placeholder for now. I will evaluate the content of your paper against all criteria below when you resubmit it.

I look forward to you resubmitting your revised paper.
