Informal Career Plan
In today’s competitive job market, continual self-assessment and improvement are crucial for achieving career success. This project offers me a structured approach to reflect on my progress, identify areas for growth, and develop a comprehensive action plan based on the valuable feedback I’ve received throughout this course. By evaluating my career readiness, setting specific goals, and refining key components of my professional portfolio, I will be better positioned to present myself effectively to potential employers. To begin, I will reflect on how my career readiness has evolved through the course, providing specific examples of the progress I’ve made. I will then outline three immediate career goals and detail the steps I will take to achieve them. Additionally, I will identify areas for improvement in my MyCred professional portfolio, resume, and elevator speech, and create a plan to address these areas. Finally, I will articulate strategies for showcasing my skills effectively in future job interviews and other career opportunities. By engaging in this reflective process, I aim to gain a clearer understanding of my professional growth and develop a strategic plan to further advance my career aspirations. View

Portfolio Project for Business Law and Ethics

Below are the directions for this project.

Laguna Productions, Inc., is a multi-media entertainment corporation located in Los Angeles that employs 200 people, and it is incorporated in the State of California. Laguna Productions is publicly traded, and the majority shareholders are CEO Charles Encatre (40% shareholder) and his four partners (each who each 5% shareholders), all of whom comprise the Board of Directors. After three years in existence, Laguna’s media products have been selling well and the Board of Directors is interested in expanding operations to include a New York City office location.

In its role as an employer, seller of media products, and selling of shares on the public stock exchange, Laguna Productions holds Personal Identifying Information (PII) related to bank accounts, credit cards, email addresses, social security numbers, and other personal information on its employees, customers, and public shareholders. CEO Charles Encatre is unsure of what are the company’s legal obligations to its’ employees, customers, and shareholders if PII is stolen in a cyber-attack under federal law, California state law, and under New York state law.

In light of recent cyber-attacks and intrusions into publicly traded companies, Laguna Productions consulted with a cyber security expert, who conducted an internal evaluation of the company’s vulnerability to a cyber intrusion. After review, the cyber expert recommends the expenditure of at least $1 million in security software programs to ward off a cyber-attack. The CEO is willing to make this expense, but the other four board members are not willing to invest much money to defend Laguna Production’s computer system. As one opposing board member put it, “It’s a valid business decision to accept the risk.”

You have been hired as a Security Consultant to provide recommendations to Laguna Production on the laws and regulations on how to deter cyber breaches.
The following course and institute outcomes were achieved: 

  • Interpret the law to devise a valid and ethical solution to a problematic workplace scenario and then present your case and the solution to the scenario using multimedia.
  • Demonstrate knowledge of numeric measurements within the business environment to make informed decisions.
