internal Code: 5IG

Critical Essay Writing Assignment:

Task: In this assignment, you are asked to discuss the concept of ethical decision making and how this influences a manager’s ability to be effective. This will require you to review the literature on ethical decision making so that you understand how it contributes towards demonstrating effective managerial practice. Using some of the questionnaires you answered in class, you will evaluate your potential to demonstrate ethical decision making as a manager by closely looking at your current managerial capabilities and your personality. Finally, based on your evaluation, you will create a thorough plan for developing these skills and abilities to help you become an ethical manager and eventually become an effective manager. This assignment is written in an essay format and must keep the reader engaged throughout the essay. Before starting, you should make sure you understand the difference between this and other assignments. The focus here is on assessing your current skills, competencies and behaviour for managing and planning to develop them in the future. This requires understanding what management involves (how it is defined and understood in academic writing), measuring your current skills and abilities, and learning how you could develop them in the future. Instructions: In a critical essay you are asked to present your viewpoint and to argue for it. This means giving evidence or justification for your evaluations, plans, and conclusions, and being clear where the evidence or arguments are uncertain or raise further questions.
