Appraise vendor\/customer relationships using justice and social contract theories.<\/p>\n
PC-2.3: Demonstrate integrity through the application of relevant codes of conduct and social responsibility within one’s profession.<\/p>\n
In other modules you learned that you will be using GVV as a foundation for a personal journey on relationship building and decision making based on your values. Why do you need to learn about ethical theories and frameworks? \u201cEthical Theories are attempts to provide a clear, unified account of what our ethical obligations are. They are attempts, in other words, to tell a single \u201cstory\u201d about what we are obligated to do, without referring directly to specific examples\u201d (Ethical Theory: Overview, 2022, para 1). Learning about select traditional ethics theories and incorporating this information into your decision-making process will help you to understand your decision-making processes in greater detail and enhance your ability to act in concert with your values.<\/p>\n
In this assignment, you will be learning about using justice and social contract theories. And applying them to a current example that you select for analysis. You will also be using your work with GVV so far in this analysis process.<\/p>\n
In a 3-7 page APA formatted paper excluding text, diagrams, and other visual\/oral aids as appropriate, address the following:<\/p>\n
Section 1- Justice and Social Contract Theories<\/p>\n
In this section you will be delving into these theories from a variety of perspectives. Using the weekly readings and videos and at least 2 other scholarly sources provide an overview of this theory to include the following;<\/p>\n
Definition, individual elements, or subsets of the main theories
\nContributors to the development of these theories
\nHistorical foundations for this theory, in other words, what societal elements or circumstances caused this theory to be developed?
\nWhat are the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating this theory into decision-making in the contemporary world?
\nSection 2 – Enablers<\/p>\n
Using the resources from this module as well as any other resources you have identified or have worked with, identify a list of your enablers. What process did you use to create this list?
\nUsing your GVV based values, purpose profile, strengths and enablers, would these theories be in alignment with your decision making? Why or why not?
\nSection 2 – Analysis of a current business situation or event<\/p>\n
In this section you will be applying the work you completed in the prior section to a current business situation (current would be within the last 6 months) that is of interest to you from the vendor\/customer relationship perspective. You may use a personal example, select from your own sources or use the many business reporting sources in the university library.<\/p>\n
Based on your research and any practical experiences you may want to share, discuss the business and societal ramifications of inappropriate vendor\/customer relationships. Include at least two scholarly sources in addition to the relevant weekly readings\/videos.

\nWould you use consequentialism as a basis for decision making, advantages and disadvantages? Why or why not?
