• Doing a brief review in Chapter 1 of how people have defined what “ethics” and “ethical” are;
• Creating an understanding, in Chapter 2, of what organizations can do for sustainability and social responsibility;
• Setting the tone, in Chapter 3, for more learning on equity, diversity, inclusion, and indigenization as it relates to ethical decision-making in Part 2; and
• Building a mental map for how to look at ethical situations by identifying important terminology and frameworks for ethical decision-making in Chapter 4.
