Question.4564 - Week 2 - Graded Discussion QuestionParticipating in each week’s graded discussion question forum is required and is worth 15 points each week. An initial, 150-word post is due by Wednesday each week and posting a minimum of 2 additional notes to each discussion is required by Sunday. Let’s have some fun dialoging on this issue. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a growing issue in today's business environment.After you have completed the textbook reading, make sure to review the Harvard Coursepack Case and respond to several of the following Case Preparation Questions: How does Firestone respond to the Ebola crisis differ from its response to Liberia’s civil wars? How much of Firestone’s actions in both cases were influenced by its financial investments and how much by its social responsibility? Firestone did not have a means of protecting its managers, assets, or employees from war. Did it really have any other options but to leave and then make an arrangement with the likely next president of Liberia, Charles Taylor, to return? Would Liberia be worse off today had Firestone left at the beginning of the first civil war and not returned? It is said that consumers vote with their dollars. If knowledge on social impacts is limited, is this still the case? Does Firestone have a “social debt” to Liberia? Are these projects an indication of Firestone’s long-term investment, from both a financial and social perspective? Do you think this information should be incorporated into Bridgestone/Firestone CSR?Note: use the link in the syllabus to access the two Harvard cases for our course. You must create an account (with profile) in order to purchase the cases.
