ethics essay

Question Description

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.

For Week 10, review your investment for the last time. You must:

  1. Record the current price of the stock for each company you selected in Week 3’s Stock Journal. You may use any price during this week (e.g., day one price, the opening, the low, the high, the close, or any price you find when you check it during the day). Using a MS Excel spreadsheet or MS Word document, put your Week 8 and Week 10 stock prices side-by-side, to show the comparison.
  2. Determine the total value of your investment.
  3. Provide your final opinion / assessment of your investments. Did you make money or lose money? Discuss your results and, based on hindsight, describe what you would do differently.

    sales management ( Task 8)

    Question Description

    Task 8

    Welcome to Task 8!

    An effective recruiting process is the cornerstone of an effective staffing system. Conversely, if recruiting fails to attract enough qualified applicants, none of the other components of the staffing system can function properly.

    While the revenue side of a selling organization is important, of equal importance is costs. In fact effectively managing costs distinguishes a thriving business from one that struggles.Another aspect of effective salesforce management include managing sales people performance. Performance evaluation provides a forum for meaningful discourse between the sales associate and the sales manager and orchestrating a plan for future professional development and performance success. However, in order to effectively conduct a performance evaluation it is mandatory that sales managers have a comprehensive understanding of the myriad of performance measures congruent with the particular selling situation.

    Read chapters 11, 12, and 13 in your textbook.

    We know that the use of selling teams, sometimes including both salespeople and others from the firm, to accomplish relationship selling is common practice today. As with individual salespeople, the success of these teams depends, in part, on the reward system used to motivate and recognize performance. How would you develop a compensation plan that motivates members of a selling team? How can you ensure the plan is fair for everybody involved?

    Persussiave presentations, solutions to a problem visual communication

    Question Description

    Think of a problem in your company, neighborhood, schools, or community, to which you would like to offer a solution. Develop a presentation in PowerPoint that you might use to present your argument to the governing board of your chosen organization. Use what you know about persuasion, effective communication, and message organization to sell your idea. In your PowerPoint, you will:

    Create 8-10 slides that offer a presentation introduction, body and conclusion.

    Focus your message on audience needs and motivations. Use reasoning, appeals to emotion and audience interests.

    Cite at least three outside sources.

    Include a coversheet slide, slide titles, bullets, charts (pie, bar, or line), clip art and creativity in terms of animation effects and word choice.

    Use the NOTES feature to add the general text of what you will say in your presentation. Each slide will have two-three substantive paragraphs in its NOTES section. In most settings, you would do fine with using NOTES simply to place your keyword outline. However, since you will not be delivering this orally, more content is needed for your instructor to understand what it is that you intended to communicate.

    Concentrate on formatting and the overall flow of your presentation. Be mindful of the rules of good visual design.

    Submit your PowerPoint along with a paragraph providing some background, your goal, and a brief description of your audience.

    my question is on the requirements please flow

    Question Description

    Market research is a critical component when you’re launching a product, trying to improve your existing service, or when you’re just looking to be a step ahead of your competitors. It will provide you with all the information you need to make better business decisions. Market research and competitive analysis is crucial for a better understanding of your customers, competitors, and other important factors in the external environment, leading to better decision making and a higher probability of business sustainability.

    Following what you’ve written so far, answer the following question as it relates to your personal business venture:

    Who are your potential customers? Mention something about their demographics (i.e. age, income, lifestyle, etc…)

    Who are your competitors and how are you differentiating yourself from them? What is your competitive advantage (i.e. cost, product/service differentiation, niche, etc…)

    Finally, brainstorm potential internal attributes (i.e. strengths and weaknesses) and external attributes (i.e. opportunities and threats) as they relate to your venture.

    Use what you have learned on marketing research and competitive analysis to answer these questions in narrative form. Again, your response to the above questions should be between a total of 400-600 words. You will be graded on accuracy of content/concepts used, feasibility, and finally the organization and presentation of the writing. Please refer to the rubric posted on Canvas for more detail on grading.
