MT140: Introduction to Management | Unit 7 Assignment

Assignment Details and Rubric
The Unit 7 Assignment requires you to consider the role of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in an organization’s strategy. CSR requires companies to ensure they are always working towards four pillars of
societal accountability: economic, legal, ethical, and philanthropic. 

Using the material from Chapter 4 of the text as well as your own independent research, you will draft an informative essay that makes the connection between a theoretical understanding of CSR and how it is reflected in the strategies of a real organization. Outcomes evaluated through this assignment include MT14005 and GEL-7.02.
