Overview

When a business shifts its strategic focus, it often must address legal and ethical concerns before it can operationalize its plan. This is because organizations are mandated to operate within legal frameworks and ethical considerations set by various authorities.

You are now in a similar situation.

While you completed the KPI analysis in Project Two, the companys legal team reviewed the same set of documents to identify and address any legal or ethical concerns.

The CEO has forwarded you a memo from the legal team that discusses these legal and ethical concerns. The marketing and sales proposal must be revised to address these issues, or it will not be approved by the legal team.

The CEO has requested that you prepare a draft response identifying one legal issue and one ethical issue, and one recommendation for each issue, so you can receive feedback before you finalize your response in Project Three. Communication received from a legal department is not always easy for someone outside the field to interpret. Therefore, you must review legalese language carefully to isolate the key issues and concerns.

Prompt

Your task is to begin drafting your response to the legal and ethical concerns raised by your companys legal team using the Project Three Milestone Response Memo Template provided below in the Guidelines for Submission. Include the following criteria:

  1. Review the following resources you will be using in Project Three: Applying Ethical and Legal Frameworks:
  2. Identify one legal and one ethical issue raised by the legal team. Remember you need to isolate the issues from the legalese to provide leadership with a clear interpretation of your findings.
  3. Develop a recommendation that addresses both the legal and ethical issues you have identified.
    1. What do you intend to recommend? How will your recommendation resolve the issue? Explain your reasoning. Please use the links found in the Memo from Legal Department as research sources for citations.

What to Submit
