Assignment Deliverable

Write 350- to 700-word evaluation of ethics in innovation and product or process development. You will use some of this information in your Week 6 assignment. Consider the following questions to help guide your evaluation:

• Who is the intended market for the product or process?
• What is important to the intended market?
• What ethical considerations (e.g., sustainability, environmental impact, social consciousness) must be addressed in the development of this product or process? How might ethical considerations change over time? How can these be anticipated and applied to the product or process development?
• How should the ethical considerations you considered influence product or process development?
