Assignment 2:

Challenges in the Global Business
Environment According to the textbook, ongoing challenges in the global
business environment are mostly attributed to unethical business practices,
failure to embrace technology advancements, and stiff competition among
businesses. Imagine that you have been appointed as Apple’s Chief Compliance
Officer and must prepare a video presentation for Apple’s suppliers regarding
Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver via a web meeting. To prepare for
your presentation, review Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct, located at
httpsss://www.apple.com/supplier-responsibility/. Next, use a tablet, smartphone,
laptop, desktop, or traditional video recorder to record a maximum of a five to
seven (5-7) minute dynamic
video on Apple’s Code of Conduct. Alternatively, you may submit a four to six
(4-6) page paper instead of the video submission. In addition to the recorded
video, you must also create a presentation using PowerPoint (or other
equivalent software) summarizing
the important changes and explanations regarding the code of conduct that you
communicated in your video presentation to email to the suppliers after the
meeting for future reference. You must submit both parts of the assignment to
receive full credit.

Note:If you are using a tablet or smartphone
you will need to email the video file to yourself, then save it to a computer
in order to upload to Blackboard. You may want to upload your video to a file
sharing service, such as Dropbox, if your email will not let you send a large
video file. Dropbox is accessible from all smartphones and tablets from the
Dropbox app. Once you are ready to upload your video to Blackboard, view the
Kaltura video tutorial found in your online course shell (Week 9). Please use
the following naming convention in the popup window for your video once it is
finished uploading: Title: Your First Name, Your Last Name – Challenges in the
