    Introduction:

    This study is to explain the sustainable management assessments through different

    scenarios. For this purpose, different case studies have been chosen, in which a manager

    can decide how to deal in what condition.

    Key Points from Scenario 1:

    The summary of the first scenario is as follows:Few years back, A German firm BASF planned to install its chemical firm in the state of America. The resources company

    required was 1800 acres land, cheap labor, approximately 5 million gallons of daily water

    usage, tax free industrial zone and the supporting dry and ocean port. Company achieved

    in spotting the area near South Carolina coast recorded as Beaufort.The people of the main

    region were glad to have the plan of BASF to work through. The plan seemed to be

    attractive for the ones living on low standards. The idea generated a hope among people

    who were facing with poor economic conditions.

    The US management of the Beaufort faced with the serious economical and morale

    factors. Besides the permission from the environmental controllers, it was still alarming to

    the community perspective policy of the company to go over it. On one hand it would be

    the source of income to the thousands, vice versa it become the diversion to the tourist

    group who are bringing up value with them. With itsinstallation, so many questions are

    been arisen.

    In the above scenario, writer will evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of deontology

    and discourse ethics (Fisher, Lovell, and Valero-Silva, Chapter 3). By using these

    approaches a manager will make the decision making whether the BASF should proceed

    with the building the factory at Beaufort country park. For this purpose following

    objectives will be achieved:

    Many proportions need to be evaluated. Profits to the individual?Interest of the stake

    holders?Danger to the environment?Morale values?Destructive aspect of the connected

    regions? Company really needs to offer the alternative for recycling the wastage by

    profiting the people and interest of the shareholders. As it can be covered by the built of

    subsidiary recycle plant along with the chemical one. Only this coverage could make the

    whole idea and plan indeed successful to run through.

    Key Points from Scenario 3:

    The summary of the case study is as follows:

    The perception of the equal employment opportunity with respect to the women largely

    depends upon the values adopted by them. 75 percent of the generation is besiding the

    equality system whereas rest is against it on banking and high corporate levels. This was

    resulted due to the huge turnover of women with comparison to the men, which urged the

    government to offer tax rebate to the millions of families falling into it. Equality concept

    passed off when the action is soon to be implemented on top levels showing the narrow

    culture.

    Corporate experts declared including the Swedish prime minister, that male dominant top

    level culture is more on ethical and financial risk. To promote the performance and outputs

    of the organization, the quota structure needs to be promulgated encouraging female

    sections.

    Action:

    Viewing the other side of the picture, if quotas are been started to work upon. Female life

    style and priorities matters need to promote themselves on board levels. In the course of

    holding the management positions, female workforce has to move forward with their

    family set up.Child care units are another thought where the government needs to offer the

    rebate. This can be a burden to the economy as per one school of thought. The earning gap

    between the top and lower management is considerable factor too. Quota system seems to

    fail where the perception of the women force at higher level reduces towards work.

    Using the findings and recommendations of the Lord Davies Report, writer will argue the

    case for affirmative action to introduce more women into the boardroom. Writer will

    Propose an action plan for business to follow in order to encourage women to break

    through the glass ceiling.

    Conclusion:

    Both scenarios have to be work upon to maintain the balance among the corporate culture

    and equal opportunity concepts by a manager. The drawbacks will be covered if the focus

    is to be made on promoting healthy policies offering justice to each gender.
