Identify and write about one current business news event that illustrates some of the concepts being covered in class that week . While it is preferable that you draw on the most recent events, the events you chose to discuss can occur any time after February 1, 2016.
Your analysis of an event should be based on a minimum of four (4) articles. Articles can be from any major periodical (e.g., BusinessWeek, The Economist, Fortune) or major newspaper (i.e., Investor’s Business Daily, New York Times, Wall Street Journal). One source can be from a blog or newsletter from an expert in the field. (Note: A brief news announcement/article of 400 words or less provides insufficient depth and breadth and therefore is not considered a source for the purposes of this assignment.)
Write-ups should include a Description of the situation, a clearly articulated Connection to Management Concepts, Takeaways/lessons learned, and References. You should draw upon a number of management concepts in your analysis of the event, and these concepts should be from at least two different chapters. Takeaways should go beyond the current situation/organization. You are being asked to think about what management lessons you have learned, which you can apply to your professional life in the future.
Your work should be professionally presented. In terms of formatting, written summaries should be at least two single-spaced pages not including references (with double spacing between paragraphs). The font should be 12 pt Times New Roman. Margins should be 1 inch around. The write-up should be titled. Your name and the due date should appear on the upper right corner of the first page. The management concepts that you draw upon should be italicized in the Connection to Management Concepts section. All four sections should be clearly delineated with bolded headings.
