Select a significant tragic event (either domestic or global) that has occurred during the last 50 years. The interactive
PowerPoint in this unit provides some ideas of historical tragic events but understand that these are just ideas. After
describing the event and the post-tragedy events, discuss the ethical aspects revolving around this incident. This may
require some additional research to understand the ethical situations and the impact these had on affected people being
able to move on with their lives.
1. Describe the actions of people and organizational leaders directly and indirectly involved with the tragedy. Specifically,
address the ethical issues they faced.
2. What were some of the actions of local, state and federal personnel with respect to dealing with this tragedy?
3. Explain the strategies of organizations that attempted to assist with the clean-up after the tragic event. Describe
several of the pressures that influenced their strategies. Distinguish between social responsibility, integrity and simple
business ethics.
4. How has this event affected the ethical culture here in the United States? What other affect has it had on society as a
whole?
Your response should be a minimum of two double-spaced pages. References should include, at minimum, one additional
