Simulation scenario:

Congratulations! You are the newly appointed Chief Supply Chain Officer for a global, high profile fashion company.

Now the bad news; you're going to have to hit the ground running!

A recent article by an investigative journalist has gone viral; exposing some pretty disturbing labor practices in one of the company's factories in India. Worse still, this comes on the heels of another high profile documentary exposing the environmental issues in cotton production. The company sources cotton from both India and China. Corporate management is coming under intense international pressure as well as from the US press, public, environmentalists, shareholders and the board of directors. The CEO is looking to you to:

Get a policy statement out fast and identify the demonstrable actions you will be taking to remedy the situation. The statement should address the company's commitment to civic and social responsibility in all the countries and communities in which it operates (China, India and the US). (RAA Excellence System Mastery Level Civic & Social Responsibility)

You've also been asked to provide examples of country-specific and culturally sensitive initiatives that the company will be taking to remedy the situation and improve the company's image in the eyes of its of its international stakeholders. (RAA Excellence System Mastery Level Global and Intercultural Competence)

...No pressure, but you've got to get this done in time for the international press conference scheduled later this week.

Submit as a Press Release that will be distributed at the press conference for immediate release.
