Please see the below and attached.

The scenario analysis culminates in the creation of a paper in the form of a
complex memorandum directed to a company executive officer discussing the
ethical issues and your recommendations. The memo will show how you have
developed, sharpened, and applied critical thinking skills in recognizing,
evaluating, and proposing a solution to ethical problems that arise in business
management.

Details

Draft a memo to a specified executive officer that identifies, discusses, and
proposes a solution to each of three ethical issues raised in the scenario.

? Your analysis and memo will provide:
? the relevant facts of the case
? the basis of each ethical issue, and how legal concerns, managers’ fiduciary
duties, and effects on corporate stakeholders define or relate to the issue
? solutions to each ethical issue/problem
? a reasoned argument for the best solutions, for both the short- and the
long-term, for the company’s ethical, and any related legal, problems

Support your recommendations with well-reasoned arguments and justifications.
Consider alternatives and explain why your proposed solutions are better.

In your memorandum, use at least three (3) outside substantive, academic
sources. These should be properly attributed with in-text citations in American
Psychological Association (APA) style. I encourage you to paraphrase (not quote
verbatim) from your sources. You are required to properly attribute any ideas
or language taken from your sources.

Skills Assessed

In your analysis, you should
? clearly and succinctly state facts relevant to the statement and resolution
of the ethical issues
? distinguish the ethical issues from purely management, marketing, finance,
etc. issues
? distinguish the ethical issues from industry standards and accepted practices
? distinguish legal issues from the ethical issues and explain how these issues
are related
? identify the stage and level of ethical development/concern as defined by
Kohlberg.
? use and integrate the concept of fiduciary duties in analyzing managers’
ethical responsibilities
? identify fiduciary duties arising in factual circumstances
? articulate alternative courses of action, evaluating them in terms of
implicated stakeholder interests and fiduciary duties
? persuasively justify one alternative as the best for the business,
considering both ethics and bottom line
? properly attribute words and ideas from other sources
? write grammatically, clearly, and succinctly; follow technical instructions

Apply ethical theories in context of your evaluations. For example,
teleological or consequentialist theorists would examine who are the
stakeholders, both internal and external to the company, and what are the
positive and negative consequences for each group. Deontologists seek
universality of principles from the facts based on consistency and normative
formulations of whether it should be universalized. Justice theorists ask what
goods are being distributed, how they should be distributed, and what rights
ensue from the type of distribution.
