Description
This assignment is for just the outline portion:
For this Portfolio Project milestone, develop a 2-page outline of your proposed topics and subtopics. Then, identify the decision-making processes used, or any additional factors that might have led to ineffective decision making. Be sure to critique any processes used. Next, describe and justify two to three recommendations for different approaches that could have been taken. Lastly, identify potential theories that may be relevant to your Portfolio Project topic.
The details of the portfolio project are as follows:
For this option, your final Portfolio Project is a thoughtful analysis of an ineffective or poor business leadership decision. You may use a well-known leadership decision, such as the 2011 decision to split Netflix, which resulted in serious financial losses for the organization, or something else. Your project must include the following:
Research a business leadership decision that was ineffective or did not have the desired results.
Describe the problem that may have precipitated the decision, as well as the apparent processes used by the leaders involved in the decision-making effort. Use terms from this course.
Critique the processes they implemented, applying what you learned from this course.
Recommend a different approach that could have been taken, using theories and methodologies from this course.
Present a strong case for how your recommendations could have altered the decision made, leading to more effective results for the organization.
Use theory from this course to support your evaluation, critique, and recommendations.
If you choose a written format, your paper should be 10-12 pages in length.
Cite a minimum of twelve SCHOLARLY sources to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to the textbook, ten of which should be academic, peer-reviewed sources. (You may not use the required and recommended readings for this course.)
