Project B2: Organizational Policy to address an IT-related ethical workforce issue (12%)

Objective: Write an organizational policy (a text-only report with a total minimum of 1,000 words) to address an IT-related ethical workforce issue that you wrote about in your matrix for the B1 assignment

Look at other policies to see how they are written. The following site provides examples of templates for policies but an Internet search provides other templates: http://www.sans.org/security-resources/policies/computer.php

Note: You must produce an original organizational policy in your original expression. Also, do not quote any source text and do not include any graphics of any kind in your project papers. Only use text and original expression – only that will be counted in addressing the minimum word count and addressing the topic criteria.

Submission Requirements: Submit the assignment response for grading in your corresponding project Assignments Folder as a single attached Microsoft Word file (as an .rtf or .doc format file).

Format: This assignment requires a minimum of three external references (i.e., relevant articles, books, information on Web sites, etc.). Indicate appropriate American Psychological Association (APA) style for citations and references for all sources you use. In addition to critical thinking and analysis skills, your paper should reflect appropriate grammar and spelling, good organization, and proper business-writing style. Note: you only need to use APA style guidelines for the citations you provide in the body of your text to indicate that you are drawing information from a source (but not quoting it) and also in a corresponding reference entry in a list of references after the end of the body of your text.

Here is a link to desrptions and examples of APA references by category of online article publication:

In Project B1, you produced a matrix that mapped key organizational issues and identified how these ethical issues were affected by laws, regulations and policies.

For this assignment, you will write an organizational policy that specifically addresses that ethical workforce issue.

There are many IT ethical challenges in the 21st century. As a result, there are constant clashes between organizational and personal policy issues in the workforce. For example, there are trade-offs that occur between the standard of living and worker productivity. This is only one example of the ethical conflict that arises when differences arise between our organizational and personal beliefs.

The following elements must be addressed using the following required headings:

Policy Comparison (heading)

Examine and compare other policies to see how they are written.

Note: You should compare at least one policy that covers most of the issues you are addressing. You can include additional policy comparisons as needed. Look for policies that can be accessed via the Web for which we can view via the URL you provide in your reference(s). Use your own criteria for comparing the policies with the objective of justifying and forming the nature of your policy proposal.

Related Organizational Policy (heading)

Use the current ethical IT-related workforce issue you developed in the Project B1 assignment and the Matrix as the basis for providing a high-level representation of a policy that is close to what you are proposing with your own ideas.

Note: The high-level representation you provide should be the equivalent of a brief overview of your proposed policy concepts that would provide a useful review by executive decision-makers in an organization, NOT the details found in the wording of most IT Ethics policy statements.

Benefits and Outcomes of Policy (heading)

Describe how your policy the one you are representing at a high level (overview) for this assignment will help the organization and describe its positive or negative consequences

Potential Conflicts (heading)

Document any conflicts that may arise between organizational and personal ethical beliefs that this policythe one you are writing for this assignmentmay impose on you (i.e., the organization for which you are providing a high-level policy proposal for review).

Note: Consider any conflicts between the ethical assumptions that are adopted for the organization in the policy versus individual ethical beliefs of parties affected by the policy, such as employees, customers, etc.

Code of Conduct Issues (heading)

How does your organizational policy manage a commitment to ethical professional conduct of its members (e.g. code of conduct – code specifics and need for maintenance, training, etc.)?

Effects of Non-Compliance (heading)

What happens when your policy is not followed? What are the consequences for those who do not comply?

Take a little while to browse the images from http://www.gordonparksfoundation.org/ and choose one that will be the subject of your essay. After you’ve chosen an image, take some time to brainstorm and generate ideas about your topic. You may choose any of the invention strategies discussed in Unit 1 and the strategies discussed in the visual rhetoric lessons in this unit.Assignment OverviewYour second major essay in this course will be a visual analysis essay. In this essay, you will be expected to apply the concepts covered up to now. This includes knowledge of the writing process, rhetorical situation, formal register, essay structure, and visual analysis.Due DatesRefer to the assignment calendar for due dates. Remember, the peer review and responses to peer review are graded separately and have their own due dates in the assignment calendar.Purpose and Learning ObjectivesIn this assignment, you should practice writing using the writing process and developing a well-constructed analysis essay in formal register. The essay should show how an analysis of the visual components of an image leads to a better understanding of the image.Process for CompletionThe first step in this process will be to choose an image. Browse the images available through the Gordon Parks Foundation Archives. The link is available near the end of Unit 3. Choose an image that you find engaging. This image will be the subject of your essay.After you have chosen your image, you should engage in some pre-writing activities using the ideas and terms presented in Unit 3.First, take stock of your initial reactions to the image. What emotions did you feel as you first looked at the photograph?Next, analyze the image by looking closely at the content, framing, composition, focus, color, lighting, and context. What interesting or unique features do you notice about the image? What does the image say to you? How does it make you feel? You should record all of these activities in your next writer\’s notebook assignment. Some of them will become important pieces of your final draft.Next, it will be time to find your focus and begin generating a working thesis statement. For this assignment, your thesis will make a claim about the meaning of the image. In other words, what message does the image communicate? Remember, every image tells a story, and an image may tell a different story depending on who is looking. Once you have decided what idea or story the image communicates to you, you will need to explain how content, framing, focus, color, angle and lighting come together to create that story or convey meaning.After completing the previous steps, it will be time to begin drafting your essay. The following outline might help you to structure your initial draft.Introduction: Identify and briefly describe the image and your initial reactions. Embed the image into the body of your essay or include a link to the image so that your audience can view it.Thesis: Tell your readers what idea or story the image communicates. of visual: Literally, describe the visual. What\’s in the picture? You need one paragraph where you simply explain what the visual looks like for your reader.Supporting paragraphs: Explain how the visual elements come together to create meaning. In multiple body paragraphs, discuss content, framing, composition, color, focus, angle, lighting, and context. You do not necessarily need to discuss every one of these elements, but you should discuss enough of them so that your reader understands how the visual elements work together to create a story. You should have three or more body paragraphs dedicated to this task. It is a good idea to discuss just one or two elements in each paragraph.Conclusion: At a minimum, your conclusion should remind your reader how the visual elements convey meaning.Minimum RequirementsThe final draft of your essay should be between 600 and 900 words in length (about 2 -3 pages long).The essay should meet the expectation of an academic rhetorical situation. You will be expected to use formal register English. Your audience will be a general audience of educated adults.The image you have chosen as the subject for your essay should be linked to or embedded in the body of the essay.The essay should be written in MLA format, with a proper header, page numbers, title, and font. See the MLA guidelines in the unit.

Ethics and Social Responsibility in Business

In marketing as in other aspects of business, it is critical that professionals make sure to act in an ethical manner both legally and socially. In this age of interconnectedness, one unethical move can become an Internet video or comment that spreads rapidly, not just locally but potentially throughout the world. From a marketing standpoint, it is critical to take into account the impact of an organizations decisions on other people and the environment.

However, how you communicate the expected conduct required in a business is as important as the ethical expectations themselves. Most companies have a written Code of Conduct as well as other corporate statements that communicate the expected behavior and values of the firm.

In this Assignment, you will engage in the development of the following professional competencies:

Make ethical decisions and solve problems

Written Communication

In this Assignment you will read the Cengage Case Study: Barclays Bank: Banking on Ethics and then respond to the checklist items in a critical essay based on a scenario.

Below is the scenario

Case studY Chapter 3
On February 28, 2012, the United States Department of Justice announced a criminal investigation into abuse of the LIBOR, an important interest rate regulated by the British Bankers Administration. Four months later, Londonbased Barclays Bank was fined more than $440 million by United States and English financial regulatory agencies for knowingly manipulating the LIBOR to its own advantage. The political and economic uproar that followed the exposure of Barclays actions led to several resignations (including that of Barclays CEO Bob Diamond) and further criminal investigations. Former governor of New York Eliot Spitzer called the incident the mega-scandal of megascandals, while journalist Robert Scheer christened it the crime of the century. The LIBOR, short for London Interbank Offered Rate, is the interest rate banks pay when they borrow money from each other. To calculate this rate, up to 20 influential British banks report their own proposed bank-to-bank lending rates. The highest and lowest rates are trimmed off, and the remaining rates are averaged, creating the LIBOR. A low LIBOR often points to financial stability, while a high LIBOR indicates that banks lack confidence in each others economic health. What Barclays was fined for was proposing artificially low bank-to-bank rates to make itself appear more stable than it actually was. However, further investigations indicated that Barclays colluded with other banks and perhaps even the British government to impact the LIBOR itself. An unnaturally low LIBOR would suggest greater economic stability than actually existed, misleading investors and loan-seekers in a potentially volatile market, and thus creating profit for the banks involved in the collusion. The rate manipulation carried out by Barclays affects not only London banks and business executives, but also small businesses and individualsp erhaps even you yourself. Because it has historically been considered trustworthy and economically accurate, the LIBOR is used all around the world as an interest rate and financial
instrument benchmark. Everything from currency values (including the United States dollar) to multimillion-dollar corporate debts to home mortgages to individual student loans depend on the LIBOR. While it may not seem like it, each of these is a product that is marketed and sold. As loans and exchanges of varying types are banks primary sources of profit, banks compete to exchange these products within a market. At the consumer level, consider how many car and credit card commercials you have seen advertising a low interest rate. Hundreds of trillions of dollars worth of these financial products have been sold based on the LIBOR a rate that may not in fact accurately reflect the worlds shaky economic standing. Journalists and economic analysts have been quick to reject the ethicality of Barclays actions. As information about the LIBOR scandal broke, TIME contributor Christopher Matthews wrote, [Barclays alleged collusion] speaks to the moral compass, or total lack thereof, of the worlds financial professionalsthe public and the government no longer trust the industry to set its own standards for acceptable behavior. In a piece for The Nation, Robert Scheer said, The modern-day robber barons pillage with a destructive abandon totally unfettered by law or conscience and on a scale that is almost impossible to comprehend. Dennis Kelleher, president of nonprofit financial watchdog organization Better Markets, Inc. was perhaps most condemnatory of all: What we probably need is to wipe out this entire generation of so-called banking leaders who apparently have no ethics or integrity. While the total sum of the LIBOR scandals consequences are yet to be seen, Barclays actions may go down in history as a monumental failure in business ethics and corporate social responsibility.
