Pay attention to the specific details of in terms of laws, ecological responsibility, consumer needs, economic outcomes, or other factors you believe represent CSR. (this may require some imagination. Refer to stakeholder mind-map for clues.)(Refer to the mind-mapping guidelines and information sources.)
2. Identify what you think is a critical component of your simulation company's corporate social responsibility (an item from your mind-map). (Each team member MUST choose a different component.)
3. Find a high quality academic source (use the UCW library) that helps you understand that component's strategic value and impact.
