Also, think about the cost to stockholders and the other stakeholders involved. Now think about Marianne Jenning's international code of ethics article. Would an international code of ethics have impacted how this entire Toyota travesty played out in the real world? What if the "world of business" had agreed to one? Would Toyota have been somehow required to behave differently, which would have protected so many stakeholders from losses and people from injury? Or, would nothing really have changed? Feel free to argue both sides of this, and include in your answer, please, at least two or three things you would have included (or Marianne Jennings recommended to include) in an international code of ethics and how that would (or wouldn't) really have impacted the Toyota crisis. Evaluate, analyze, and synthesize your answer using everything you have learned this session about ethics, law, politics, and

We are trained to be their advocate when is needed. An individual or anyone can fall on hard times, become depressed because of the circumstances that are happening in their life. The first thing, I thought about was their children.…

    I appreciate your points on provision 2 and 3 of the Code of Ethics set forth by the American Nurses Association. Provision 3 states that the nurse acts as an advocate for the patient, protecting their rights health and safety (ANA, 2015). From the onset of nursing school we learn that nurses are the patients advocate. It seems almost cliché after many years in the clinical setting and at times I think nurses advocate for patients in ways they are not even aware. Currently I work in the ambulatory care setting of a busy neurosurgical practice.…

    The article by Barbara Perry “Mythical norm” is to highlight some of the eye-opening realities that one knows that they exist, but, can’t seem to eliminate from society because the roots of those stereotypes have been nourishing for years. History and media contribute to promoting the culture of giving one group of individuals more privilege than the other based on their sex, race, and religion. Privilege in the 19th century and the present time is only fixed for persons who meet all the requirements which includes, heterosexuality, masculinity, whiteness. Perry starts the discussion no by accusing one race for dominating, but asking a very important question that is “White is meant by the idea of white male privilege?”…

    Thus, we often see articles about how companies covered up their soon-to-be scandals, how companies assured citizens but ended up hurting the environment (chemical companies and their wastes), and fraud among executives like the ENRON scandal. The ENRON scandal was a big event in American economy history, because such large energy company was doing illegal practices, from the executives to employees, no one said anything before it was revealed. There must be employees who knew about the executives’ action and were against it, but because of loyalty and they were afraid to be fired, what they could have done was limited, and this is just one example among many. In result, to prevent such big problems from happening, companies must guide their members in an ethically way. As Daryl Koehn, author of the article “Is Business Ethics an Oxymoron?”, wrote: “In more general terms, businesses must care about ethics because businesses are part of a human community.…
