The world in which we live has become more complex. Business now operates in a global economy and with that a world in which nations are more connected and interdependent than at any time in history. This is transforming the relationships business has with many individuals and organisations in society. There is now greater demand on business to demonstrate practices that are environmentally, economically and socially responsible. Consumers also have an expectation that the products and services they use are produced in an ethically and socially responsible manner. This unit examines the corporate governance and ethical challenges facing global operations and how this is influencing the nature of strategic decision making by business leaders. This unit combines the study of principal theories of ethics and governance through business cases to develop a critical awareness of the nature and importance of responsible corporate practices.
