Please read the case studyPreview the documentView in a new window.

In paragraph form (3-5 pages), the case analysis should include the following sections:
•Clearly and succinctly, describe the problem or issue that is the subject of the case. Use names to identify key actors in the case (not all actors).
•Identify and evaluate 2-3 relevant potential courses of action. Describe each and state their strengths and weaknesses.
•Choose the alternative that you believe is most appropriate and justify your choice. Apply concepts primarily from Module 5, but Module 6 could apply as well.
•Use the discussion questions provided at the end of the case to help guide your analysis. While you are not answering these questions directly, they can provide guidance for the write-up.
•Write a concluding paragraph.
