Imagine that you have been invited to the White House to chair a committee of senators who are charged with developing international business ethics guidelines (IBEG) for the next 10 years.

 Complete the following for this assignment:

• Imagine that you have been invited to the White House to chair a committee of senators who are charged with developing international business ethics guidelines (IBEG) for the next 10 years. Discuss the following issues:
  • Political involvement by businesses
• Examine the key ethical aspects of this issue.
• Develop an action plan to lead people with different perspectives toward acceptable compromise and consensus.
• Remember that resolving ethical issues seldom requires deciding who is right and who is wrong. Instead, it usually requires identifying a gray area of commonality among diverse perspectives and building consensus around shared ideas.
• Your action plan should involve more than just gathering all stakeholders and finding common ground; it should also detail the methods and processes you will use and the issues and concerns you will need to consider as you strive to reach a consensus on the IBEG. For example, how will you identify stakeholders? How will you assign different weights to stakeholders? Are all stakeholders equal? What about the stakeholders that do not have a representative (e.g., wildlife, future generations, and so on)?
