Case Study #1

STEM270 Case Study Analysis Worksheet

Week 4 Assignment

Use the following format to write a paper to discuss your case study. Each section should be at least one fully developed paragraph.

Name:

Case Study Title: Include a full APA or MLA citation in your reference section with a URL link.

1. Briefly, what happened? Summarize the case.

2. Key Stakeholders and how they were impacted: Discuss at least 4 major stakeholders (not stockholders, though the stockholders may be stakeholders). For each stakeholder, briefly explain the relationship with the company, organization, or person – why are they stakeholders, and how were they impacted (positively or negatively)? You should use bullet points to summarize each stakeholder.

3. What was the final outcome? Include specific details such as prison, fines, termination, and for how many individuals. Make sure to cite your facts.

4. Describe why you feel someone’s actions were morally wrong. Using named moral theories, discuss why you believe these behaviors were morally right or wrong. Be sure to use keywords describing your moral base (consequentialist, care, duty, act utilitarian, prima facie duties, etc.) and why your compass would justify classifying the action as morally right or wrong. Be sure to document the resource(s) you use for the definition of the moral theory or theories.

5. Put yourself in a position of leadership: Describe what you would put in place that would have prevented this in the first place or kept it from happening again. Or, alternatively, what rules would you implement to justify the action? Discuss rules in the context of your leadership philosophy or ethical standard.

References: At least one reference is required in APA/MLA format. In-text citations should be used to show where you used your research . Note that if your major requires a different style (Chicago, Turabian, etc.), use it. Just be consistent.
