Read the AMA Statement of Ethics. The code identifies six ethical values honesty, responsibility, fairness, respect, transparency, and citizenship.
Provide an example from any organization to illustrate the application of one sub-point found under each of the ethical values. You can use different organizations to illustrate each one of the values or use the same organization to illustrate all of the values its up to you. For example, under the ethical value of Honesty, one point is We will stand behind our products if they fail to deliver their claimed benefits. An example of this ethical value in practice is the National Home Warranty Program for new home buyers. Within the first five years, they will repair major structural defects if the new home was built by one of the builders who belongs to this program. This is an ethical practice because it ensures the value of honesty is upheld and because it ensures the homes offer value and durability.
(I made the connection between the code, industry practice, and the theory learned in the course. You need only provide one example in practice for each major value indicated, not for every sub-point under each value. )
