Assignment -2 1. Reflect on the organisation you chose for Assignment 2, consider what they are doing for environmental sustainability. Consider other ideas you have read about or experienced that could be used to improve efforts of all organisations to protect the environment. Way of making sense: Useful conceptual background might come from the segment of the course which discusses environmental sustainability or ethics, or from the part on the relationship between business and society. Readings may include Ignatius(Captain Planet), Mackey (Conscious Capitalism), or other readings or content form this Course. Personal experience: this may be experience you have had, learned in this Course, or read about that has made you reflect on what should or should not happen in an organisation in relation to environmentally sustainable practices. 2. After working through the Careers Workbook choose a) two of the most important intrinsically rewarding values you identified and reflect on why they are important to you? b) two of the least intrinsically rewarding values you identified and reflect on why they are not important to you? Information: Spend time working through the Careers Workbook, in particular the values section. Students will complete this task in class time-you will be given a hard copy version of the workbook. Materials from this course you might find of value to reflect on could by articles by Jane Goodall, Mohammed Yunus, Christensen, or other readings from the Course. Way of making sense: Useful conceptual background might come from the segment of the course which discusses what it means to be professional, values and ethics, work/life balance and other areas you think relate to this task that are relevant to intrinsically rewarding and extrinsically rewarding areas of importance to you. Personal experience: this may be experience you have had of deciding what is important or not to you in your life, your parents, others you know. Way of making sense: Useful conceptual background might come from the segment of the course which discusses ethics in both video clips, in particular Sikumi, but also bad examples such as the Ponzi scheme and Unocal, but also good exampels such as video clips from Jane Goodall or Mohammed Yunus, and also from readings we have done in the course. You can also consider implications of these approaches for business and society.. Personal experience: this may be experience you have had of occasions where a business has placed undue emphasis on profit with unfortunate consequences for the environment, or where the concern shown by a business for the environment community has had positive consequences, or some other personal experience.then link these examples back to rules/results/virtue ethics, also examples that you reflect on from your own life inspired by watching Sikumi. 3. Reread the Captain Planet article – what are your reflections on ethical behaviour approaches that you think it recommends? How important are these to you as a student and for your future career?
