Option 2: Ethics in a Corporate Setting

Your essay should be a coherent and well-developed essay focusing on the relationships between personal and professional ethics in the corporate sector. This essay will have two sections that need to be connected in the paper’s overall thesis and your discussion/ conclusions.

Section 1: Your Personal Ethics

In no more than 1 page, please articulate your personal ethics statement. This should summarize your overall ethical worldview, its foundations, and ethical boundaries in a professional context that you believe are important.

Section 2: Ethical Case: Barrz Soda

Imagine that you are working as a public relations professional whose primary responsibility is managing the image and reputation for a beverage company – Barrz Soda. Barrz primary brand is Iron Brew, an intensely popular soda amongst children, teenagers, and young adults. Over the years, the advertising campaigns have become legendary because of their use of humor and image advertising. Iron Brew also has the most sugar per serving of any soda on the market. Barrz Soda, like most beverage companies also has a range of diet sodas, waters, and other beverages that are not high sugar.

In recent years, Barrz soda has come under public criticism for advertising to young adults and for the sugar content in Iron Brew. However, as more advocacy campaigns against sugary drinks have grown, there is pressure for Iron Brew to make changes. In the last couple of years, they have tried to change the formula to Iron Brew, but the market research has showed that any changes in the flavor are likely to result in catastrophic losses in sales. As it is, sales of Iron Brew remain consistently strong; however, sales in the less sugary alternatives that Barrz offers have been low.

In the next year, Barr needs to see changes in the public and media narrative about the company to ensure their primary brand is not damaged, but also promote their less profitable brands. Ideas have been offered about corporate social responsibility (e.g., donations to health-related organizations), promotional campaigns for their other brands, sponsorship of sports teams with their other brands, development of new brands, etc.

You have been tasked to develop a sketch of an initial strategic plan for the next year identifying key needs/problems, measurable objectives, critical stakeholders to engage, and to develop a specific set of ethical principles guiding the strategic plan. This plan need only sketch out the key principles to be considered by the team, but it needs to be delivered quickly, so it should focus on core principles, objectives, and recommendations with strong support. It is important that you tie in personal and professional ethical considerations to your analysis of the case and recommendations.

Your paper should be 3-4 pages in length (excluding cover page and references) and formatted according to theCSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements. Be sure to discuss and reference concepts taken from the assigned textbook reading and relevant research. You must include a minimum of three credible, academic or professional references beyond the textbook. Review the grading rubric to see how you will be graded for this assignment.

Develop a Training and Organizational Development (OD) proposal and presentation to senior management targeted at improving diversity training within an organization of your choice.

This is a PowerPoint Presentation in need of 17 slides with notes in the notes section for the content slides, to include title slide, introduction slide, and reference slide, and at least 5 references. Critical factors are that only MS PowerPoint software can be used as well as research conducted, effectiveness of the proposed training program, the credibility and appearance of the PowerPoint presentation, critical thought, and APA format

The assignment and instructions are as follows:

Develop a Training and Organizational Development (OD) proposal and presentation to senior management targeted at improving diversity training within an organization of your choice. Many organizations have extended the management of diversity programs beyond HRD programs and processes by changing human resource management (HRM) policies and programs to meet the special needs of the new workforce. A growing number of organizations are holding line management accountable for diversity goals. For example, incorporating diversity goals into their performance evaluation process, and measuring improvement in relation to pre-established target goals annually.

As the HRD manager of your organization, what new training programs and processes would you propose to senior management to develop effective recruiting and selection methods to attract more minorities and women to your organization? Explain how HRD methods can be used to help manage a culturally diverse workforce. For example, how will you overcome language and discrimination issues that will ultimately lead to a climate in which all employees can thrive within the organization and contribute to its success?
