KEY TERM : CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

THREE ARTICLES ATTACHED, WHICH SHOULD BE THE ONLY REFERENCES/SOURCES MENTIONED

Your submission must include the following information in the following format:

DEFINITION: a brief definition of the key term – (the definition should come from the article)

SUMMARY: Summarize the article in your own words- this should be in the 150-200-word range. Be sure to note the article’s author, note their credentials and why we should put any weight behind his/her opinions, research, or findings regarding the key term.

DISCUSSION: Using 300-350 words, analyze the article as it relates to the selected key term. This is the most important part of the assignment. Analyzing articles is an opportunity to delve into organizations to determine best practices. As pertains to Organizational Theory, it is an opportunity to discover whether organizations engage in these types of business practices. Organizations in and of themselves are just things. However, when you add people to them, they then become what are known as living and learning organizations – aka knowledge organizations.

REFERENCE: The source for the analysis must be listed at the bottom of the submission – APA format required. Use only peerreviewed journal articles for these assignments. Refrain from using blogs, .com’s, or other unreliable internet sources. A title page is required for these assignments.

Use the APA Style 7 ed. student version guidelines to format the title page. Be sure to use the headers (Definition, Summary, Discussion, Reference) in your submission to ensure that all aspects of the assignment are completed as required. Any form of plagiarism, including cutting and pasting, will result in zero points for the entire assignment. Further, any flagged documents will result in zero points for the assignment. Flagged documents mean that an attempt at plagiarism exists, or manipulation of the Turnitin process has been attempted. This is unacceptable conduct and will not be tolerated.

Do not deviate from this format. When analyzing articles think about the following:

1. What key term was chosen by the author?

2. What is the significance of this key term?

3. What are the theoretical underpinnings for why this key term was chosen?

4. What key finding did the author of the article discuss regarding the key term as it applies to organizations in regard to business ethics?

5. What conclusion can you infer from the article?
