Part 2: Evaluating Emails
Jump ahead in the textbook and read pp. 365-71, on email etiquette, and check out this website, which lists 101 email etiquette tips: http://101emailetiquettetips.com/
Then, read over a wide selection of emails that you received and sent over the past week or so, in both personal and professional contexts, and assess how well those emails follow the etiquette outlined both in the textbook and on the website. Write one paragraph analyzing the emails you've received and one paragraph analyzing those you've sent.
In analyzing the e-mails received over the last week, there are several areas for improvement both with co-workers within the company I work for, and with friends who frequently send very large files across personal and private e-mail systems. The most noticeable gaffe of all however are the mis-spellings and very rapid requests for help or assistance, which appear terse and at times demanding. There is one manager who may not realize that he is portraying himself as arrogant and condescending in his requests for information. This is most noticeable with how he copies literally the entire division of the company I work for stating his accomplishments and also stating "he and his team" will review the findings of recent...
He doesn't have a team, he is an individual contributor. The biggest gaffe of all I see in e-mail is not recognizing and valuing the people getting the message however. The majority of e-mails do more self-promotion and less actual communication, therefore they generate resentment and make others stop cooperating.
From analyzing my own e-mails, I can see that I am sending inordinately larger attachments, in addition to rushing e-mails with spelling errors in them on occasion. My biggest problem is in writing e-mails that are too long and include too many bullet points. There is also the challenge of succinctly getting to the point in many of my e-mails. I need to become better at quickly summarizing key points and showing the context of my insights and decisions. Finally I also need to cut down on "Reply All" in how reply to e-mails as I can see that I've sent many people e-mail messages they didn't really need.
Part 3: Plagiarism and the Internet
In this week's reading you learned how to recognize and avoid ethical abuses in the workplace. But ethical abuses can happen and do happen in academic settings as well. With so much information readily available on the Internet, and with the ease of copying and pasting text from one document into

Multinational Corporations In many powerful nations with whom U.S. corporations would like to do business (such as Mexico, India, and China) the price of bribery is factored into the everyday costs of doing business. There are profound cultural differences regarding perceptions of the ethics of bribery and in some government officials' views, receiving a bribe is an expected part of their informal salary. However, legally, the hands of U.S. companies are
Corporate Ethics and Hacking Although the predominant opinion expressed by governments and mainstream press regarding hacking is one of disapproval and unsubstantiated fear, the truth is that hacking may be deployed ethically or unethically depending on the situation, and in fact, hacking into a website or database is entirely justifiable in certain contexts. In order to see why this is the case as well as understand the complex role of corporations
This would have been a truly unethical action. The second objection that can be brought to the sustained thesis is represented by the fact that censorship is a violation of several human rights. These rights include the right to freedom of speech, the right to self-expression and the right to be well informed. It might be argued that Google made a mistake and created a precedent, proving that totalitarian regime
(Snyder & DeBono quoted in Kjeldal 2003, Introduction section, ¶ 6). The results from the study Kjeldal (2003) conducted with 70 participants in two stages suggest that the word association responses high self-monitors (HSMs) produce reflect selective activation of a personally meaningful, experiential, system. The responses low self-monitors (LSMs) produce, on the other hand, indicate an intellective factual system. 2.
