Text Book Managing: A Competency-Based Approach, 11th Edition by Don Hellriegel , Susan E. Jackson , and John W. Slocum Jr.
You are required to submit one short current event analysis report. For the report, select an article from the current business press (list of appropriate newspapers, magazines, and journals is posted on Blackboard). Your article must be on a topic related to our class, must be published after May 25, 2010, and must be at least 10 paragraphs long. When you have identified the article, answer the assignment questions to assignment questions to discuss listed on the current event analysis sheet (This is posted on Blackboard). The key here is to connect current news events to course material. Each report must typed, double spaced, 12-point font and must be 5-6 pages, excluding any cover or reference pages.

Analysis Guideline
1. How can others find the article (written reference or on-line link)?
2. Briefly describe the article (1 page).
3. Connect the content of the article to course material (4 pages).
You must use four concepts from the text book, clearly referencing the source as you do.
4. Develop two assignment questions to assignment questions to discuss that would stimulate assignment questions to discussion among students concerning the article and topic (1/2 page).
