Apple Challenges In Global Business Environment

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 4-6 page paper for Apple’s suppliers regarding Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver via a web meeting. To prepare for 4-6 page paper, review Apple’s Supplier Code of Conduct, located at https://www.apple.com/supplier-responsibility/.

In addition to the 4-6 page paper, you must also create a presentation using PowerPoint summarizing the important changes and explanations regarding the code of conduct that you communicated in your presentation to email to the suppliers after the meeting for future reference.

You must submit both parts of the assignment to receive full credit.
