BUSINESS ETHICS, CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, AND CRITICAL THINKING
You are a senior associate consultant at Accent Pointe Consulting LLP, a consulting firm. The engagement partner has asked you to prepare an engagement plan and budget. You make sure that your plan and budget are in line with your knowledge of what can and must be done to meet the client's needs. The proposed fee is $100,000. When you present the budget to the engagement partner, she goes ballistic. “What's this $100,000? This is Accent Pointe Consulting. This is the big time. What kind of consultant are you?”
“A good one,” you reply. “I've created a reasonable plan, and for what we are doing for the client, that is a high-end fee.”
The partner, however, does not buy your arguments. “You make this contract $200,000,” she orders you, “and find a way in your engagement plan to back up that price.”
What action will you take?
What process and guidelines will you use to determine what is the right thing to do in this context?
If you decide that $100,000 is the correct contract price, how do you resist the partner's request to make you bill the client for $200,000?
Will you take a different action if you know that a year from now the firm's partners will vote on whether you should be made a partner, and you believe the engagement partner's recommendation will be critical to your becoming a partner?
Will you take a different action if you are the engagement partner and have been ordered to bill the client $200,000 by a managing partner? Note that as a partner, your share of firm profits is determined by the number of “units” you have, which is largely a function of the amount the firm bills clients for whom you are the engagement partner.
What action will you take if you discover that the managing partner's request to bill more is a relatively isolated incident in a firm that generally bills clients accurately? You don't know the managing partner's motivation for asking you to overbill the client.
What action will you take if you discover that the firm has a culture that encourages overbilling clients? The overbilling culture evolved within the last decade from a desire of managing partners to enjoy a financial status more nearly equal to the corporate executives of their clients, many of whom receive annual compensation in the millions of dollars.

Analyze and explain the ethical considerations associated with managing information.
Technology can pose to be a blessing and a curse at the same time. The information provided is quick and efficient but unethical considerations can take place easily. This past decade, there has been numerous attempts by many different governments, countries, states, people, who have potential of breaking the law and violating the rights of citizens for selfish gain. according to an online article, "Ethics refers to the principles of right and wrong that individuals, acting as free moral agents, use to make choices to guide their behaviors" (Zheng, 2013).
The first concern with managing information is ensuring the information cannot be manipulated. Ethical issues would be considerations to privacy and inappropriate use of information, global access to these systems and control of these systems. Managers would have to ensure safety guards are in place to protect the privacy of their clients, financial information and other important information for the organization. Per an article in Colorado edu, "The broad issues relating to electronic information systems include control of and access to information, privacy and misuse of data, and international considerations. All of these extend to electronic networks, electronic databases, and, more specifically, to geographic information systems. Specific problems within each of the three areas, however, require slightly different kinds of ethical decisions" (Lynch, 1994).
Cause-related marketing has become a controversial issue among potential donors and funders. What are the potential pitfalls associated with cause-related marketing?
Cause-related marketing is a nonprofit organization networking with a well known company and the well known company promoting and supporting the nonprofit organization. While this seems to be an excellent idea, because this sheds light on the cause of the nonprofit organization, the potential problems this can cause is the one of the organizations could make bad decisions, which will make the other one look bad. Companies have to protect their reputation and we can see many companies affected, due to bad business practices from the other company.
Another issue is according to an article in Wealth Group, "Cause-related marketing triggers issues under Federal and state laws governing false or misleading advertising, state commercial co-venture laws, and Better Business Bureau Standards" (Mathis, 2015). Large organizations may advertise they may donate to a cause, without disclosing the specifics of their donation, misleading the population and causing for the company to be investigated.

Maximizing long term shareholder value is one of the objectives many businesses have in determining their growth and success. Shareholders are regarded as the owners of the companies and so, their worth should always be given the top priority before any other business is considered. However, when corporations act ethically by contributing towards their immediate societies through corporate social responsibility initiatives, they are seen to disregard the shareholder wealth maximization objective. Organizations should strike a balance between community based charity initiatives and taking care of their real owners. Firms that fail to maximize the wealth of their owners have always been at loggerheads and may end up losing their worth in the market. Adding more value to the society than it is to the company may mean lack of understanding of the company and its objectives which is also another recipe for long term failure.
This concept is far more important to businesses, society and individuals in that its understanding facilitates proper coordination between the three extremes. The best position to approach this issue is from Mackey whose ideas stress on the need to balance between organizational objectives and societal needs. According to Hartman, DesJardins, & MacDonald, (2018). When the long-term shareholder value is fully maximized, attention should then focus on the societal needs based on their urgency. Individuals will have a better understanding of the firm, its objectives and the focal areas before its attention is shifted to those outside its realms. Additionally, the society will know where the focus of the organization is and develop a framework that will cater for their needs, instead of depending on the corporation for all their needs.

The job of business managers is to make sure that the company’s investing in technology, buying or maintaining equipment, process running correctly, people are working efficiently, and facilities are in working order. On top of that, workers need to be provided with fair wages and good benefits. If workers feel that they are not getting treated right, they might refuse to work for the company or go on strike. These means that products for that company will not be created and the stock prices start falling. All of these items required money, money helps create the products and money in needed to pay workers. Some of the money is from shareholders, which could also be used for investments.

Unit Lesson
Introduction
The world as we know it now is much different than it was 100 or even 50 years ago. Without change, the
world, businesses, and life would become stagnant. Stagnancy is not where you want to be. The problem
herein is that one cannot expect to get different results, such as improved productivity, efficiency, or
profitability, if we continue doing the same things we have always done. Businesses especially want to better
their best. They want to get more with less. They want greater profits. As the wants continue to grow, the
world continues to evolve. If you do not change, surrounding businesses will continue to change and evolve,
and you and your organization could be left behind. In this unit, we will explore a few of the many challenges
faced by any business. While some of those challenges may pertain to economic pressures, demographics,
diversity, networked organizations, and ethical behaviors, there are even more. This unit will focus on the
economy, globalization, technological advancements, and social media. However, any of those challenges
mentioned leads to additional opportunities to be explored. Each situation presents an opportunity. It is what
you choose to do when faced with those challenges and opportunities that can make all of the difference.
A Gamut of Challenges
Let us look at the economy and its impact on an organization. To begin, you need to think of a business as a
dynamic entity that changes and reacts to its environment. In this sense, all organizations change and adapt
to what the economy is or is not doing, and, because of this, organizational behaviors change.
Some examples of these changes in behaviors are when the economy is bad and a company suspends pay
raises or bonuses. When an organization’s profits tank or are much lower than predicted, the company can

Unit Lesson
Introduction
The world as we know it now is much different than it was 100 or even 50 years ago. Without change, the
world, businesses, and life would become stagnant. Stagnancy is not where you want to be. The problem
herein is that one cannot expect to get different results, such as improved productivity, efficiency, or
profitability, if we continue doing the same things we have always done. Businesses especially want to better
their best. They want to get more with less. They want greater profits. As the wants continue to grow, the
world continues to evolve. If you do not change, surrounding businesses will continue to change and evolve,
and you and your organization could be left behind. In this unit, we will explore a few of the many challenges
faced by any business. While some of those challenges may pertain to economic pressures, demographics,
diversity, networked organizations, and ethical behaviors, there are even more. This unit will focus on the
economy, globalization, technological advancements, and social media. However, any of those challenges
mentioned leads to additional opportunities to be explored. Each situation presents an opportunity. It is what
you choose to do when faced with those challenges and opportunities that can make all of the difference.
A Gamut of Challenges
Let us look at the economy and its impact on an organization. To begin, you need to think of a business as a
dynamic entity that changes and reacts to its environment. In this sense, all organizations change and adapt
to what the economy is or is not doing, and, because of this, organizational behaviors change.
Some examples of these changes in behaviors are when the economy is bad and a company suspends pay
raises or bonuses. When an organization’s profits tank or are much lower than predicted, the company can

Senate Bill Aims to Prevent Chemical
Contamination of Surface Water
IHE CHEMICAL
spill that
' recently occurred in West
Virginia and interrupted
water deliveries to approximately
300,000 of that
state's residents has led to the introduction
of federal legislation aimed at preventing
the recurrence of such events.
Although improved protection of surface
water enjoys broad support, questions
have arisen as to who should oversee
and fijnd the additional regulatory
efforts called for in the bill.
On January 9 it was discovered that
thousands of gallons of chemicals used in
coal processing had leaked from storage
facilities at a tank farm located along the
Elk River in Charleston, West Virginia.
The chemicals entered the waterway approximately
1.5 mi upstream of a public
water supply intake, forcing officials
to recommend that residents of a ninecounty
area in and around Charleston
not use their drinking water. Lasting for
more than a week, this situation caused
considerable concern about health effects
and spurred calls for regulatory
protections.
On January 27 Senator Joe Manchin
(D-West Virginia) introduced the
Chemical Safety and Drinking Water
Protection Act of 2014 (S. 1961), legislation
that aims to protect surface water
from contamination from chemical
storage facilities. The bill would revise
the Safe Drinking Water Act to establish
state programs for overseeing and
inspecting chemical storage facilities
that are deemed to pose a risk to public
water sources. Within one year of enactment
of the legislation, states would
have to set requirements for chemical
storage facilities covered by the new
programs. These requirements would
address such topics as "acceptable standards
of good design, construction, or
maintenance," along with leak detection,
spill and overfill control, inventory
control, inspections of facility integrity.
and life-cycle maintenance, according to
the legislation.
Additional requirements would pertain
to emergency response and communication
plans, employee training and
safety plans, and the financial responsibility
of the owners of chemical storage
facilities. States would share with drinking
water providers the emergency response
plans fo.

th
Edition Guidelines: Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is the full citation of a source followed by notes and commentary
about a source. The word “annotate” means “critical or explanatory notes” and the word “bibliography” means “a list of sources”. Annotations are not the same as abstracts. Abstracts
are purely descriptive summaries often found at the beginning of scholarly/ academic journal articles. Annotations are meant to be critical in addition to being descriptive.
Format:
The format for an annotated bibliography is similar to that of a research paper. Use one-inch margins on all sides, double-space your entries, and arrange each entry in alphabetical order. Hanging Indents are required for citations in the bibliography, as shown below. The first line of the citation starts at the left margin and subsequent lines of the citation will be indented.

This article discusses the problem of unintentional online plagiarism and many
students’ inability to evaluate, critique, synthesize, and credit online sources properly.
Two case studies from different disciplines, which were designed to foster critical evaluation of the Internet and scholarly sources, are discussed in detail. The CARS (Credibility, Accuracy, Reasonableness, Support) checklist for evaluating research sources is also introduced and applied in these case studies. I found this article useful because much of the content of these case studies can be easily adapted to fit assignments in different academic disciplines. One information literacy assignment in one quarter at college is not enough. If students are expected to use the Internet in a responsible way, educators must provide guidelines and relevant experience that allows students to apply those guidelines in practical ways.

The agreement is for the tutor to write a
Microsoft word doc of a scene for 13-18 years old. Further instructions inside attachments below. Assignment due 9pm EST. 3hrs from post time.
The goal is to create characters and a voice that feel authentic to adolescence and would be appealing to adolescents to read.
For example, identity, coming-of-age, romantic relationships, work/school balance, and firsts (kiss, car, job, etc.) are a few of the relevant topics for this age group, although there are any number of topics you could use in your own version.
Instructions:
A “scene” would be about two pages of text, taking place in one location, where characters are present in that scene and interacting in some way. Some scenes may further character, most will probably further plot, some may further theme or emotion -- the crucial part is just to have dialogue and description and be sure to show rather than tell when appropriate.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
