Business Ethics

    One essay, a full, minimum twelve pages (12 pages of text!) in length (double-spaced, one inch margins all around) is due during Final Exam week or essay week in summer courses (you will not have to post at this time as chapter tests and discussion will be completed). Please turn in the essay to the CANVAS Drop BOX supplied within our course. Please know that the essay topics are as follows:

    Please read thoroughly the required text The Vocation of the Business Leader. With this document in mind, please also research the life and work of St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226). Using your moral imagination and newfound understanding in Business Ethics, have Saint Francis of Assisi start a business using no less than 6 of the 87 points outlined and discussed in The Vocation of the Business Leader (we will already have discussed some of these points throughout the semester!). Please give the number of each of the 6 points you will use in the text of your paper. Discuss why “St. Francis” would choose each of the 6 points and what he hopes to accomplish in his new business. Please also be original and innovative—part of your grade will be on creativity (the other parts of the text will be graded upon clarity, argument, understanding of Business Ethics). Feel free to incorporate themes, vocabulary and anything that you have learned from the Shaw/Barry text as well and be sure and use our texts as references. Please: be creative!
    OR:
    As innovation is key to healthy commerce in a global environment, and as our technological age expands its influence, please invent a marketable, real-world commodity–product or service—and discuss how it advances ethics in business and the subject of ethics in general. The first half of your essay should discuss your invention; the second half should include your ethical commentary. Please use no less than 6 references to The Vocation of the Business Leader in either or both sections of your essay.
    Please be creative!
