MGMT 645 Week 1 Assignment

Project Topic Selection Paper
One of the most critical steps in this class is selecting an organization. You will use
this topic for each weekly project and the Project Recommendations. An
organization must be submitted for approval before you can proceed to the next
elements of the assignment. Failure to submit your topic selection by the due date
will preclude you from completing the upcoming project assignments.
When selecting an organization for purposes of these assignments, its best to
select a mid-size organization where you will be able to access the information
needed to complete these assignments. Selecting an organization that is too large,
like Wal-Mart or GE, will be too significant a scope for these assignments. Selecting
a small organization of under 20 employees wont provide the needed dynamic to
complete these assignments. When considering what organization to select, you
may select an organization where you work or have worked. You might also select
an organization that is of interest to you but it should be an organization where you
have access to resources to complete the required assignments. There are many
scholarly sources available within the Davenport University Library. Additionally,
other great resources could be leaders within the organization who you can
interview. One word of caution, its important to maintain objectivity. This will be
demonstrated by your scholarly research.

For the Project Topic Selection, you will submit a 2 page APA formatted paper that
will include the following:

Name of organization

Reason why you selected this organization

Description of organization that will include type of industry, number of

employees, basic history, any other pertinent information as to why this is a great
selection for your topic.

A minimum of 3 specific APA formatted scholarly resources that you plan to

use in your upcoming research.

MGMT 645 Week 2 Case Analysis

of your text. Make sure you open & read the guidelines and rubric that you will find
under the Syllabus link of the class. Please note that the rubric follows the criteria
outlined in the assignment guide and rubric. Answering the questions at the end of
the case does not constitute a thorough case analysis. If youre confused, open up
the Individual Case rubric to ensure you are doing the assignment correctly.
Include a title slide that lists each participating team members name and a
reference slide that indicates the outside resources used to prepare your
presentation. One team member should upload your final PowerPoint through the
Written Assignment link under the Group PowerPoint Case link for grading. All
participating team members will receive the same grade if submitted before the
published deadline.
Present your project via the Collaborate Live Classroom. Click on "Collborate" under
the Learning Hub to the left. Scroll down to see your group session once the
Collaborate page opens. Make sure you record your presentation so the instructor is
able to view it. Ideally each team member should present his/her own portion of the
analysis, but there are times when this is simply not possible. So as a team, decide
how you want the presentation done. You may have one person present or multiple
presenters the choice is yours. The final presentation should be uploaded and
presented in your teams live classroom.ONLY ONEpresentation should be submitted
for your group, but all members must submit a copy to their Blackboard folder.
Note: There are two steps to submitting your group project. Both steps must be
completed in order to earn credit for this assignment.
1) Submit your PowerPoint to the grade book via the Group PowerPoint Case link
that youll find under the Written Assignment area of the course.
2) Present and record your presentation in your groups Collaborate classroom. You
will need a microphone and speakers or a headset with a microphone to record the
presentation. The USB headset eliminates that annoying feedback.
