Giving gifts such as free sales promotion to a purchaser is ethical. In this case it benefits both parties. For a customer it may get a coupon off its favorite product or something they need or want or an added product from which can bring happiness. When a customer makes the purchase this benefits the business which brings happiness.

By giving preferential treatment to customers who are also good suppliers. This can be defined as reciprocity, which is the exchange of materials for mutual benefit. In this case I believe it is ethical to give special treatment to customers who are good suppliers. This is creating a reliable customer base. You will  c a base that will stick with you because they know they get treated well when dealing with your business. Companies create loyal/reward programs for this reason. You as a customer feel important to this company which is vital for a company to make it as personal as they can.

Unless the purchaser gives their permission that they can use their information, it is unethical to seek information from purchasers on competitors quotes for the purpose of submitting another quote.

Gaining information about competitors by asking purchasers I believe is ethical. You as a business owner want to out beat your competition and in doing so you need to gain information about the other company to know how they operate, maybe even how they cut costs or spend money, and how they attract customers. It can all be very beneficial to your business. Businesses can also gain information about competitors in other ways as well. As described in the article “12 Ways to (Legally) Spy on Your Competitors”, by Carol Tice, it says by just looking on social media page you can gain information about a competitor, or even play secret shopper and skip the middle man.

Instructions

Over the past 40 years, union membership has declined, and it continues to do so. Instead, many companies are turning to alternative dispute resolution. We know one of the best union avoidance tactics is good communication and providing job satisfaction for employees.

Create a PowerPoint presentation (with speaker notes) that focuses on unions in the workplace. Address the following concepts in your presentation.

  • Identify the factors that have contributed to the reduction in union membership. Be sure to include the rationale you use in your speaker notes.
  • Evaluate whether or not the reduction in union membership is a good or bad thing for employees in the United States. Be sure to include the rationale you use in your speaker notes.
  • Explain what alternative dispute resolution involves, and identify the pros and cons from the perspective of the employee and the pros and cons from the perspective of the employer. Remember, you want to include the bulk of your explanation in the speaker notes, not on the slide.
  • Describe a situation where employees or managers would want to use some form of alternative dispute resolution such as mediation or arbitration as opposed to direct negotiation or litigation to resolve disputes. Be sure to include the rationale you use in your speaker notes.
  • Explain how each of the seven determinants of job satisfaction (individual personality, the work itself, compensation, growth and upward mobility, coworkers, management, and communication) help to create the type of environment where employees experience job satisfaction. Remember, you want to include the bulk of your explanation in the speaker notes, not on the slide.

Be sure to include an introduction and conclusion to your presentation. Include at least two images or graphics in your presentation.

Your PowerPoint presentation must be at least eight slides in length, not counting the title or reference slides. Adhere to APA style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used.
