    1. Name three business processes that can be described by the normal distribution. Justify your answer with at least two scholarly articles on the topic.

    Be sure to show your calculations and explain how you arrived at your answers.

    Paper Specifics

    Although this is a working paper it is also a research paper; therefore, it should be developed, organized and presented using APA formatting guidelines including the use of a title page, citations, headings, tables, figures, references and appendices (if applicable); be sure to cite at least three scholarly researched sources.

    Any calculations and graphs may be done in Excel, and then transferred to a Word document. All calculations should be clearly explained as to your assumptions and how you arrived at your answers.

    Note: Though the names of the teams in the case may be familiar, they are purely fictional; do not use external sources that discuss teams with similar names to support your analysis or any conclusions you draw.

    Neither an abstract or running head is necessary for this assignment.

    The submitted assignment MUST BE a Word Document.

    General Guidelines

    Most classes have a 2 paper requirement per course. Please be sure to address the following requirements when completing your papers:

    • The cover page and reference page/s are not included in the above-stated page requirement. These should be in addition to page requirements.
    • Papers need to be formatted in proper APA 7thEdition style.
    • Each paper requires a minimum of at least three outside peer-reviewed sources for your references (unless stated otherwise in the guidance above).

    o Acceptable/credible sources include: Academic journals and books, industry journals, and the class textbook. To include additional types of sources, please review the Guidelines for finding and utilizing required references for your paper, shared below.

    • Using your textbook is highly recommended to demonstrate that you have read the required material and/or are connecting new thoughts to the course text/learnings.

    Guidelines for finding and utilizing required references for your paper:

    For a formal research paper, you are required to locate, understand, and integrate a certain number of peer reviewed journal articles and/or published books, as these are considered reliable and valid sources of information by academics and industry. The best source of these articles is to search through your CiAM Library (LIRN). However, if you find a website you would really like to share in your paper, you can do so if it is NOT counted as one of your reliable/valid articles/books (i.e., goes above and beyond the required amount of reliable/valid sources), and if it is NOT the basis/foundation of your paper. Otherwise, there is no way to demonstrate that: 1. You have done true research and have given the appropriate level of thought to your paper; and 2. There is no way to validate that the information you have received off of the internet has been fact checked.

    Here are some guidelines on how to think about this process:

    1. Using Wikipedia: This internet source is very popular, and although there may be some great articles found there, there is no formal process (at this point) for what is posted to be fact checked. Meaning, what you find there is not always true. However, if you read an interesting article, you can go to their references, check on who they researched, then go to that ORIGINAL work (locate it in our library), and then read through that article and reference that article (not Wikipedia). If you want to cite Wikipedia, you may do so if it follows the guidelines shared above (i.e., is NOT the basis of your paper, and is just a supplemental share going above and beyond the minimum required reliable/valid works). You may also simply visit Wikipedia just to get more general information on a subject before you start your formal research process).

    2. General informational websites and business websites: These follow the same rules as shared above.

    Requirements: 3-4pages

  • Complexities of implementing AI ethics

  • Essay 1

    The essays require that you write in proper essay format. That is, you should have an introduction (which sets up the thesis of the essay), a body (which fully describes the theory and answers all sub-questions), and a conclusion (which summarizes the theme and content of the essay). Thus, your answer should have at least 3 paragraphs. You should proofread your answer before submitting to ensure that it is free from grammatical, spelling, and typographic errors.

    Ethnographic researchers have long studied the lifestyle and street culture of persistent street offenders. They have determined that many persistent offenders have similar lifestyles and values. What are some of the elements of the criminal lifestyle or street culture? How does participation in this lifestyle contribute to people engaging in violent behavior (e.g., robbery, carjacking, sexual assault) instead of legal ways to achieve their desires?

  • Moderator Guide

    Write a moderator guide on a topic of your choosing, following the format of the Moderator Guide Example at the bottom of the Instructional Materials page for this week. For additional examples of moderator guides, make sure to review . Note though, the Garrison examples are in a different format to what is required here. There is no universal convention for moderator guide formats. You will use a draft of your moderator guide in the live FG session this week. This means you need a functioning draft moderator guide ready for the start of your live FG session. After testing your guide in the live session you can then refine your guide from the live session for submission here. By actually testing your moderator guide (often referred to as a pilot test) in a live session, you likely identify many (or at least some) things you would like to change in the moderator guide.

    You should not feel pressured to make your FG guide interesting to your other group members. If your passion or ideal FG topic is something most other people find boring that is okay. Also, if you desire, you can ask your group members to role-play in the live FG. For example, if your FG is about why teenage females use Facebook, you can ask your group members to pretend to be teenage females in the FG. You will use the data you collect during your live FG to write your FG paper (see for more information). However, you can use a FG guide on any topic to achieve a good grade in the Focus Group paper. Given the time constraints of the FG live session, you will likely not have time to ask all of your moderator guide questions during the live session. For this reason, you should identify your most important questions and make sure you ask these questions in the live session. You do not need to make any notes on the assignment of what you believe your most important questions are. This task of identifying these questions is an ungraded and unreviewed exercise you complete alone in preparation for the live session.

    Make sure to do the steps listed:

    1. Clearly state the topic and write a three- to four-sentence summary of the problem (real or fictional) and the goal(s) of the FG.
    2. Indicate who participants would be, how you would screen, and reimbursement participants receive for participation.
    3. Include three general probes and mark these with General Probe.
    4. Include at least three specific probes for each key question and mark these with Specific Probe.
    5. Your topic should not be one that other students in the class may consider sensitive or intrusive. Concrete examples would be to avoid topics such as sex, drugs, criminal acts, religion, or politics. Although FGs are very useful in these areas such as testing effectiveness of campaign commercials or determining how to promote safe sex, such topics may be offensive to others in the class.

    Note: The Moderator Guide Example at the bottom of the instructional materials page for this week is single spaced. For this assignment you can use single space or double space.

    Resources: There is no additional or new information about this assignment elsewhere within the course. This is a stand-alone assignment with all the information needed for completion contained on this page.

    Video:
    How Do Focus Groups Work?

    (Focus on 0:004:30)

    Overview & Summary:
    This video provides a concise overview of focus groups as a qualitative research method, emphasizing their use in understanding attitudes, opinions, and underlying motivations. It clearly explains the role of the moderator as a facilitator who guides discussion through open-ended questions while allowing participants to interact naturally.

    What I liked most about the clip is its emphasis on balanced participation and moderator neutrality. The video reinforces that focus groups are not designed to reach consensus, but rather to surface differing perspectives and group dynamics. This aligns with our course materials, which stress that interaction among participants often generates richer insights than individual interviews.

    The video also briefly acknowledges key limitations of focus groups, including dominant participants and social pressure. I appreciated that these challenges were presented as manageable through skilled moderation rather than reasons to avoid the method altogether. One limitation of the clip is that it remains mostly conceptual and does not show a real focus group in action. However, as an introductory video, it effectively connects theory to practical application.

    Discussion Question:
    What techniques can moderators use to encourage quieter participants to contribute without making them uncomfortable?

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Corporate Codes of Ethics vs. Corporate Behavior

    All major firms have a code of ethics, which is a document that stipulates that they are committed to a standard of ethical behavior that goes above and beyond what the law of the land stipulates (if the firm was merely following the laws of the land, it wouldnt need a separate code of ethics). But do firms actually believe in their own code? Do its employees adhere to it? For this discussion, I want you to do the following:

    1) Pick a company that has been implicated recently in a corporate scandal. For instance, you can choose to look at Volkswagen (the emissions cheating scandal), Facebook (privacy violations), Boeing (failure to ground faulty planes resulting in hundreds of deaths), McKinsey (one of the most famous names in management consulting that proposed cutting spending on food and medical care for migrant detainees in order to save costs), Wells Fargo (that opened millions of fraudulent accounts), Duetche Bank and Hongkong Bank (money laundering)… the list is endless. Read about the scandal from multiple sources. Check to see what the PR response of the firm was.

    2) Look up the firms Code of Ethics (or Code of Conduct) on their website.

    3) Answer the following questions:

    (a) Did the company follow its own code of ethics? If not, why not?

    (b) If the code of ethics is not enforced in so many corporations, what is the point of having it? What purpose do you think it serves?

    Instructions:

    Create a thread with your responses to the prompts above. Your post must be at least 600 words long, not counting any references.

    Use as many references as appropriate to indicate what sources you are drawing upon in order to substantiate your answers. I am expecting you to use a minimum of 2 references for this post.

    Please be sure that you organize your posts utilizing organizational methods like titles, sub-titles, bullet points, charts, graphs, etc. This will increased readability and exercise those business writing muscles! It doesn’t matter what you have to say if no one reads it. Take the time to organize coherently. Do not use an essay format.

    All initial discussion board posts should have a minimum of one visual element. It can be a chart, graph, image, video clip or other supporting visual element. I HIGHLY recommend Statista for graphs and charts.

    READINGS

    Read Sections 5.1 to 5.5 from Chapter 5 in the textbook:

    https://openstax.org/details/books/principles-management (Book is below)

    BOOK

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tEeAU6TDKVLcrYlBv6mFJ3mg8ZpW10bf/view?usp=sharing

    You should be able to answer the following questions:

    (a) What are normative ethics?

    (b) What are business ethics?

    (c) What is the concept of intrumental values?

    (d) What are some of the frameworks for understanding ethics? (The book talks about utilitarianism, universalism, rights-based approaches, justice, virtue ethics, etc.)

    (e) What is ethical leadership?

    (f) What is the role of corporate culture in the ethical behavior of the employees of an organization?

    2) Despite the fact that all major organizations have a formal code of ethics which is written in very righteous language and aspires to sound like the corporation really cares about ethical behavior, the fact is that many corporations engage in unethical behavior when it suits their purpose in complete disregard of their own stated principles. It appears as if their code of ethics is mere lip service to a cause that can be supported as long as it does not interfere with the profit making of the corporation. Look at the following partial list of corporate scandals over the last 3 years:

    (a) The 10 Biggest Business Scandals of 2017:

    3) Ethisphere has been publishing a list of the Worlds Most Ethical Companies for the last 14 years, based on a set of criteria that are labeled governance, corporate citizenship and responsibility, culture of ethics, ethics and compliance program, and leadership and reputation. Here is the list of 2020s honorees:
