Instructions
Initial Thread
The purpose of the Discussions is to examine the ethical values displayed in various organizations, and view such in light of Scripture, the course text, and scholarly research. For each Discussion thread, write a 375–450-word thread that presents an analysis of the assigned case study from Hess & Cameron. Your thread will not summarize the article; instead, it will analyze that company’s values approach in light of Biblical truths and outside research. Support your assertions with at least 3 scholarly resources that have been published within the last 3 years, in addition to, a course text, and Scripture. Your thread must be in current APA format and must include a reference list. Please copy and paste your thread into the Discussion (you may attach a copy to retain formatting – if needed). No title page or abstract are needed.
Discussion: Thread: Ethical Decision-Making
Topic: Ethical Decision-Making
Our reading this module: week begins with an introduction to ethical decision making and also explores the Christian involvement in ethical business. With this in mind, read chapter 1 from Hess & Cameron as they explored ethical culture at the Synovus Financial Corporation. The phrase they use, “just take care of your people,” is value-laden, and should resonate with the Believer in business. For this discussion, answer the following questions:
Synovus Financial Corporation did well to “take care of their people.” What could Synovus have done better?
What current company should or could display these same values in order to improve?
