Writing Question

Write a synthesis of articles addressing the need for corporations to act ethically. Use peer-reviewed articles from Google Scholar to answer the following questions: Why is it important to consider ethical implications? How did Chesapeake not act ethically? What is the responsibility of the Board of Directors to enforce ethics and why did Chesapeake BOD not? How does Corporate Social Responsibility or Triple Bottom Line coincide with ethics? This assignment should be 900-1200 words not including the title page and reference page. Use APA 7th Edition citations, references, and formatting. This can only be submitted as a Word document (.doc or .docx), double spaced, 1 inch margins, Times New Roman 12 point font. Synthesis means to combine a number of different pieces into a whole. Synthesis is about concisely summarizing and linking
different sources in to review the literature on a topic, make recommendations, and connect your practice to the research.
Synthesis usually goes together with analysis because you break down a concept/idea into its important parts/points (analysis), so you can draw useful conclusions or make decisions about the topic or problem (synthesis). I have included three magazine articles, but you must find at least 3 more peer reviewed outside sources to back up your ideas. 1Chesapeake Energy Battles CEO Compensation Furor – BusinessWeek.pdf 2Chesapeake Energy Investors Fume over Pattern of Poor Corporate Governance.pdf 5Ches shakes up board.pdf Requirements: 900-1200 words
