Resources, readings

Some of the resources/readings for week 1...will assist with the week 2 assignment.

Assignment completed

I completed and submitted the assignment yesterday. I decided to submit yesterday because the Mid-Manhattan NYPL would be closed on Sunday (the next day) and I wasn't sure what would happen. It was too risky. I could have spent some more time on the paper....however, I like what I submitted.

First assignment continued....

Work on the assignment continues. I now have a better bank: Wells Fargo. That company was in the news for fraud recently. It was a major fraud scandal too!

I started putting the paper together....

I am working on the document in GoogleDocs. Link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XkCQHYcJxpkfVU3SgbSfQBh5B7e6iQK8ov3h6OAjFgE/edit?usp=sharing

First assignment...continued

After thinking about companies in the news for fraud, I came up with a candidate: Capital One. Not so long ago, I read and retweeted a news article on fraud at the company (or maybe a similar bank). I ran a Google search to view recent news stories on Capital One. The following four stories stood out:

Capital One Acknowledges Insider Breach

And an interesting article on culture at Capital One:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/blakemorgan/2018/03/12/building-a-customer-centered-culture-at-capital-one/#35adf5e44065

I thought I would see/find more pervasive fraud (fraud in a particular department, fraud leading to a restatement or something similar). This company might work. I will think about this some more & look around for more examples.

First assignment

The first assignment is on the importance of ethics in organizations. I need to select an organizaation with ethical problems/issues. Work begins!
