Step 1: ResearchFor the 3 organizations chosen, you will need to research:

  • What each company does?
  • What are the ethical systems of each organization are and their code of ethics?
  • How each company evaluates and measures its ethical systems?
  • How each company impacts the community or communities in which it operates or is located?
