This is just a link added for the week, use it if necessary: https://hbr.org/2012/06/managing-risks-a-new-framework
Information: From Project Planning to Project Execution
Up to this point in the course we have investigated many project risk planning activities including identifying, quantifying, analyzing, and aggregating risk at the activity and project levels. This week, we will take the leap from project planning to execution. Hopefully, by the time we are done, you will see that if planning was done adequately, using the concepts and methods that we have been discussing (and applying) for the past five weeks, then it will be much less of a leap, but rather a “gentle step” into execution.
THIS IS THE RESEARCH PAPER ASSIGNMENT:
Submit a 300-500 word paper addressing the following:
Based upon the Risk Management Plan provided by the Instructor this week, submit a 300-500 word addendum to the plan documenting your proposed contingency plans and identifying any risks (schedule and/or resource) where reserves are needed for the Class Project case study scenario. Remember, the need for reserves or contingency plans may be the result of “aggregated” risks as discussed last week, so be sure to indicate if that is the case and which risks (Risk #’s) are being addressed. Also, be sure to include your reasoning for applying contingency plans and/or reserves to these risks.
The Final Research Paper is due next week. If you are having problems, please let the instructor know as soon as possible.
** The format for the Final Research Paper will be in accordance APA, with which you should already be familiar. You can find a template at: APA Template. (See files) -

Assessment 3 Example [PDF] Download Assessment 3 Example [PDF].
Ethical decision-making at an individual level and one’s ethical behavior can be viewed in three primary steps using an ethical decision-making model.
First is one’s moral awareness, recognizing the existence of an ethical dilemma. This is the pathway to establishing the need for an ethical decision. This awareness is an individual sensitivity to one’s values and personal morals.
Once a personal awareness is evident, we can make a judgment in deciding what is right or wrong. This sounds simple, yet there are a number of variables driving this personal judgment. One variable is the individual differences and cognitive bias we all have based on our personal history and experiences. A second variable is the organization. This variable may be influenced from a group, organizational or cultural perspective. A code of conduct or standards of behavior may also influence our judgment.
This model, operating in a dynamic fashion, leads us to our ethical behavior; taking action to do the right thing. Is the right thing the same decision for everyone? Obviously not. We are all influenced my multiple factors in our decision-making.
This decision-making model can help us understand the pathway to our ethical decisions.
