FINAL PROJECT

DUE WEEK 7

Your job is to research a company - Locate their current strategy both short term and long term and then offer suggestions to improve upon it. This is where you will use both first and third person. It does not necessarily have to be CSR Related but more about sustainability. Usually, they are connected but you are welcome to be creative here. 

A paper & a presentation

Details below

The paper part will be 6-8 pages to include a title page and reference page.  Title page and reference page do not count toward the 6-8 pages

Pick a company of your choice and follow the project requirements for both the paper and presentation. Your presentation will simply be your project put into a presentation. 

After you have selected a company of your choice to discuss in both first and third person. So this means you can use "I" in addition to your research. The key people you talk about can be other leaders from other organizations and what would make their skills great for your company.

The goal is to develop for a current company something that would create a positive impact in terms of business development and sustainability for the company. I know those terms are broad but I am doing this on purpose to allow you to be creative. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
