Power Point Presentation
Using the template, create an 8–10 slide PowerPoint presentation with slide notes that define a corporate social responsibility issue, explain how the problem affects a local or global community, and describe possible sustainable solutions that the company can support.
1. In preparation for this assessment, review your selected company website and look for evidence of a social responsibility issue or problem that they have adopted to support in the local, national, or global community. Think about the following questions as you review the website.
Is the company support for the issue financial or is there also a volunteer element?
How are employees engaged in the financial or volunteer activities? Are customers able to contribute financially and through volunteering?
How is the solution that the company supports sustainable?
How does the issue tie to your chosen company’s mission and vision?
2. Select a corporate social responsibility issue to research. Possible topics include:
Workplace diversity, hiring, and equity.
Reducing the carbon footprint.
Clean energy.
Water stewardship.
Climate change.
Hunger.
Digital divide.
3. Narrow the topic down to a specific CSR problem that needs to be solved. Explain how it relates to your chosen company and offer possible solutions that the company can support.
4. Next, research the CSR problem. Locate 3–7 reputable resources about the business problem and solutions.
5. Develop a PowerPoint presentation with 8–10 slides with slide notes on the chosen corporate social responsibility topic and business problem. Organize your content so ideas flow logically with smooth transitions.
PowerPoint presentation slides generally shouldn’t have sentences such as a white paper or memo would but instead should have bullet points that are organized and clearly convey the intent of the presentation.
You should still follow APA rules for attributing sources that support your analysis and conclusions in the Notes section of the slides.
Use the Notes feature of each slide to explain and expand your bullet points and reference your resources. You have the choice to submit your PowerPoint presentation with extensive notes or with notes plus narration.
