This question can be addressed by considering any issues you wish, the only stipulation is that they are arguably of global significance. Here is a list of possible issues, but do not feel constrained by this. If you want to draw attention to other issues that is fine as long as they are issues that face many parts of the world and you can discuss the extent to which they are related in some way, (or you may argue they are not related, but you must argue it).

Globalisation

National culture

Gender inequality in the workplace

Climate change

Corporate power and corporate social responsibility

Business ethics
