Analyze and critique a current event in the news from an organizational behavior perspective.
In addition to the grading guidelines above, evaluation will be based on:
· Critically analyze the issues presented in the story from an organizational behavior perspective drawing from distinctions from the course.
· Apply the course concepts (both readings and discussions) to the contents of the article. Do not use the article as a backdrop to just explain a particular course concept (your book and assigned readings cover that).
· Offer a strategy for how to proceed or manage the problem/dilemma posed in the story. If the story offers a strategy or tactics, evaluate the pros and cons of this path.
News stories should be current (not older than two months) and should come from reputable news outlets such as Fortune, Forbes, Businessweek, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, etc.
