Ethical standards

Posted on | by Brian Leakey

The organization where you work or aspire to work is asking you to present an action plan to ensure compliance with ethical standards. Considering this request, develop an action plan (5-8 pages) based on a target ethical area.

The plan needs to include the following:

Ethical standards: Identify the current ethical standards or code of ethics followed by your organization. Provide a brief synopsis about the main points stated in the ethical code (Principles or sections included in your professional code of ethics). Use it as the tool for creating the action plan.
Goals for your action plan: Propose the goals for your plan- What prompts the need for your action plan? Clearly indicate why it is necessary to develop a plan. Include at least one specific reason area to support the need for the plan.
Activities: Indicate the various ways and methods you would use to disseminate ethical standards in your organization.
Resources: Provide a list of suggested references and materials (at least five) a leader would use to support ongoing knowledge on ethics.
