leaders need to provide the vision, communicate the need for change, and
inspire internal members and stakeholders of the organization to implement
change. At the same time, the modern age of business is one of unprecedented
transparency. As a result, ethical behavior must be part of the fabric of the
organizational culture in order for organizations to be sustainable. In this

the process and tactics of shifting a company such as Ternary Software from a
traditional co-located organization to a virtual organization and the ethical
considerations surrounding such a shift. This section should flow naturally
from the revised paper. So, you may also need to revise your introduction and
thesis statement to allow the papers to connect. Include the following:
1. A research-based discussion of the process of shifting
from a traditional organization to a virtual organization. How does technology
affect the organization’s design, efficiency, and effectiveness?
2. A research-based discussion of how a contingency
decision-making framework can be used to recommend the best organizational
structural response to environmental uncertainty. How can this be used in the
transition to a virtual company?
3. A research-based discussion of the leadership tactics
appropriate for use in shifting from a traditional organization to a virtual organization.
4. A research-based discussion of the ethical implications
and how to manage them when considering shifting from a traditional
organization to a virtual organization. How does the Christian worldview
influence methods for managing the ethical implications?
