What is ethical way to determine how much each job get

/in /by

This paper requires you to use the Transforming Initiative steps (see below) and careful interpretation of course and additional material to analyze the issue and formulate an ethical response. This is constructive work that grows out of your own analysis of the issue. Do not just write about what different ethicists are saying about the issue. Taking the methodology seriously in this assignment will not only earn you a better grade; it will also prepare you much more thoroughly to lead ethical discussions in your communities of formation. Although this is not primarily a research paper (that is, you are not presenting and defending a thesis statement), you will need to do appropriate research and must cite any sources that you use, according to MLA, APA, or Chicago guidelines, using in-text citations or footnotes and a properly formatted bibliography. However, as an analysis paper, you will not follow the traditional introduction/thesis/ argumentation/conclusion pattern of a research paper. Instead, you will follow the outline provided below. If you wish, you can number the points in your paper and use subheadings for each. Transforming Initiatives Identify the key ethical problem that you will address. See below. Identify the informative voices that need to be part of the dialogue. Your paper bibliography needs to be made up of 6-10 peer reviewed, college level sources or reputable online sources (not blogs or Wikipedia) that directly address the ethical dilemma under discussion. You need to make sure that the voices of those directly impacted by the ethical problem are accounted for. For example, if you are discussing the flooding of Bangladesh as a result of global warming, you will need to find the voices of the Bangladeshis who are being flooded out of their lands. What are they saying about rising seas that needs to impact how we think about it? These sources need to be incorporated into your entire paper through the use of short quotes and references to the thoughts and ideas found therein. Your quotes and references must include citations and any source referenced must be included in the bibliography. Identify which virtues are required to shape you and your community so that you can properly respond to the ethical dilemma. Aristotle’s Virtues: Courage, temperance, liberality, magnificence, magnanimity, patience/good temper, proper ambitions/pride, truthfulness, wittiness, friendliness, modesty, righteous indignation. Kingdom Ethic Virtues: love, joy, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self control, deliverance, peace, justice, healing, inclusion in community. Identify specific actions that your local community can take to: Understand the ethical dilemma; Identify any personal responsibility for the dilemma; Identify areas needing response; And/or, respond in specific ways. Name one transforming initiative that your community can initiate, which will: Address the root causes of the injustice; And, initiate change that continues beyond the specific actions of a local community. Suggestions for Structuring Your Paper Introduction (1 page): In the introduction of your paper you need to clearly outline the scope of your paper, including: A brief overview of the ethical problem you will be examining and the why (why does this ethical topic matter? Is it a justice issue? Does it impact whether we are treating people as valuable in and of themselves?); A clear statement about your specific topic. For example, do not just say you will be writing about sexual ethics, but specify what you will be writing about: e.g., This paper will be exploring whether or not pre-marital sex can be considered virtuous. A “road map” that clearly states what each section of your paper will do (first this paper will…second this paper will…). Body of paper 6-8 pages: Analysis of Ethical Problem (3-4 pages): Here you will use reputable, peer reviewed, and college level resources to outline and critically engage the ethical dilemma under discussion. You will need to have sufficiently narrowed your ethical dilemma so that you can address it in this amount of space. You will need to also be clear on the perspective that you are approaching your dilemma from. For example, if you are addressing wage inequality do not simply give statistics, but rather be clear if you are approaching this as a sociological dilemma, economic dilemma, or some other perspective. Also, make sure that your view of the dilemma itself is clear. So, do not simply give numbers on wage inequality, but rather say what the dilemma itself is. Here you may need to engage the course readings to support your argument for why something is unethical. Analysis of Individual and Community Responses (3-4 pages): In this section you will: In 1 page: Identify 1-2 virtues that are necessary for you and your community/communities to have in order to respond to the ethical dilemma analyzed in the first section. Clearly show how and why these virtues are necessary for this particular dilemma and how your community can develop them. In 2-3 pages: Identify and analyze specific actions your community can take (step 4) and transforming initiatives they can develop (step 5) in order to respond to the dilemma and its root causes. You might incorporate resources here that show what actions other communities have taken or what actions experts on this ethical dilemma have argued for or successfully implemented. Make sure to show how these actions and initiatives are shaped by the virtues you identified above. Conclusion (1/2-1 page): In the conclusion you will recap the dilemma and your recommendations for community based responses. Do not include new ideas in the conclusion that were not discussed in the body of the paper itself, except to suggest possible further areas of research.

Half Draft Subject: Capstone Project – Half Draft Points: 15 Learning Outcomes Consistent with the course syllabus, this assignment aims to have students demonstrate the following: Formulate a clear well-written research question or statement of problem that is well justified. Demonstrate deterministic or cause and effect logic in your research question or statement of research problem. Convey the Project’s conceptual structure via the previously produced outline that has now been transformed into a well-organized and well-written APA formatted Table of Contents. Collect valid academic and professional information or data relevant to that research question or statement of problem. Evaluate and analyze published literature specific to the research question or statement of research problem. Present findings or results using a discipline-specific and well-written medium (i.e., APA style). Instructions This submission must be formatted using the APA style (Cover Page, Executive Summary or Abstract, a Table of Contents [your Table of Contents will reflect, in heading and subheading form, your finalized outline], your written work and your reference page/s). This means that all you produce for this submission must be APA formatted. Further, all you produce for this submission will be submitted as one Word file. To ensure you remain on track to finish your Capstone Project before the semester ends, I have designed this course so you are regularly submitting work. Toward that end, for this submission you will submit no less than a half draft of your Capstone Project. Looking at your finalized outline, I expect half of that outline to have been incorporated into this submission. If, upon completing half of the outline, your written work (excluding cover page, Executive Summary or Abstract, Table of Contents, and Reference page(s)) is less than 12 pages of double-spaced typed 11 or 12 point font text in Word, you will need to keep writing. You may submit more of your project on that date but to submit less will result in a loss of points. Please contact me in advance of the due date if you have any questions regarding these instructions. Be Aware of the Following Be sure you are formatting your work correctly using the APA style, including both in-text and reference citations. Pay attention to quality writing. Do not write in the first person. The word “I” should not appear in your writing. This Capstone Project is to be written in the third-person. Since you now have a finalized outline, I want to see a Table of Contents immediately after your cover page and abstract/executive summary page. Let me make a few additional comments about the Table of Contents. When you were creating your working outline and finalized outline, I requested that the outline sections (e.g., the A, B, C and A1, A2, B1, B2, B3 sections, etc.) be expressed in sentence format. By doing this, I hoped to get a better idea of what you would be discussing in that section. It is now time to turn those descriptive sentences into first level, second level and, where applicable, third level headings. Your Table of Contents will reflect the various headings that were once your outline. So, there will be no more need for the Roman numerals, the A, B, Cs and numbered elements of your outline. I am looking now for primary headings, secondary headings and third level headings. Cite your sources internally (in-text) using the APA style. Do not plagiarize! Paraphrase well. Using direct quotes is okay but only in a limited fashion. Extensive use of direct quotes will not be allowed. You may have been allowed to quote extensively in other courses but you will not be allowed to do that in this course/for this Capstone Project. If you do not understand what I am requesting here, you need to contact me well before the due date. Unfortunately, too many students wait until the day before assignments are due to ask questions. This is simply not acceptable. If an employee were to approach their employer with pivotal questions the day before a project was due, the employee would likely be approaching an employment office within the next few days. If this is your habit, please break it before you graduate. It could be the best thing you ever did for yourself. What I am asking for must be submitted as one Word file of no less than 12 pages (excluding cover page, abstract, table of contents, and references page(s). The latter do NOT count toward the page minimum requirement. (15 pts.).

Sales proposals

/in /by

Introduction: Sales proposals are an integral part of any successful deal.

They are actually one of the most powerful instruments in a salesperson’s arsenal of deal-closing tools. In fact, proposals can make all the difference between losing a sale and closing one. And when done properly, a proposal will not only help close the sale, but it will also make that sale larger than it otherwise would have been. For the final project, you must persuade your client to accept or adopt your sales proposal for a selected product or service. Make sure you choose a product/ service about which your audience would actually need persuading. Let’s think in terms of insurance, car sales, an international vacation, investing in a new innovation, etc. Also make sure your topic is researchable. Your client should be compelled to take action and close the deal.

The client will be whatever group you would like, such as a board of trustees, executive committee, brand new clients. Sales proposal may include any or all of the following: About us Customer research Market/competitor research Feasibility research Benefits to customer (“what our product/service can do for you…”) Data gathering Fact checking Payment Default Some of the elements I will be evaluating are: a clear, appropriately narrowed thesis, strength of arguments, variety of research support, use of specific details, raising and rebutting potential arguments, effectiveness of visual aids, and consideration of audience’s perspective.

For the sales proposal presentation, summarize the key points from the written proposal. Your Sales Proposal Presentation will be 10 to 15 slides and should include extensive notes for each slide or a 5 to 10-minute YouTube, Vimeo, Jing, Screencast, etc. It should, at the minimum, include a brief summary of each of the following sections: About us Customer research Market/competitor research Feasibility research Benefits to customer (“what our product/service can do for you…”) Data gathering Fact checking Payment Default
