Our study of ethics in business can sometimes seem esoteric and removed from day-to-day management responsibilities, but media are filled with real-life examples of unethical business behavior that harms the businesses involved, as well as their shareholders, customers, employees, and other stakeholders. This paper assignment asks you to find such an example, examine what went wrong, and apply the materials we’ve been reading to develop preventions and solutions. Take an in-depth look at the situation through the lens of secular legal and ethical principles but also through the lens of a Biblical worldview.
