This assignment is about ethics (and, by extension, morality) in a corporate entrepreneurial environment.

You are to write an essay (min 500 words) that discusses the issues that may arise in a corporation as it strives to be more entrepreneurial, and as it conducts business in general. You should give examples, and propose solutions, realizing that what is supposed to happen in theory doesn’t necessarily happen in practice.

We have covered a variety of issues in terms of ethics so far in this course, from the actions of individuals, managers and senior executives to the company as a whole. You may want to mention some of these as examples. You can pick a specific aspect of ethical issues in business, or talk about ethics in business on a general level.
