· Determine the type of ethical system used by the firm and reasons or examples upon which you based your decisions. Ethical systems include ends-driven, relativistic, entitlement, and duty-driven (legal or religious) ethics.

· Identify and discuss how the code of ethics is used. Include several paragraphs on each use: one for employees, one for management, one for the board of directors, and so forth. Some of this information comes from the company's code of ethics. Others may be available through an Internet search. Consider the following:

o Why it is used-the general or special circumstances
o How it is used
o When it is used

· Why might the organization need to modify their existing code of ethics? Consider how you might modify the code if you were the new CEO and how you would implement the changes.

· What possible reactions to the code are to be expected from employees and managers? What effects does the organizational culture have on the acceptance of the code?

· What is the effect of the code on the organization?
