Description

HEY GUYS, Umer flipped a switch in me last class. So I’m gonna snap on the cases going forward. Also, I was talking to other groups and the ones that recieved 90-95% on ALL the cases were the ones who wrote very little (3 pages) but were extremely direct. If it doesn't fit directly into one of these categories, let's leave it out. Let's not repeat ourselves at all. Also, they bolded and underlined the parts that answered each section directly so Martin doesn’t have to look for it. Let's follow this format to a tee, and i bet we can pull off a savage grade. But also, to be prepared for people like Umer, especially if we get grilled by another smartass. Also, please look at the powerpoint in the week 4 folder on Blackboard. It literally says what types of things to write for each section. It gives pretty good explanations of each section and provides bare examples .

Action Plan Depends on the case, but be thorough. Don’t just state facts which can’t be backed by the reading. Use specific steps or points directly supported by evidence from the case reading.

Recommendations Recommendations are not a more detailed explanation of the decision ➢ They are additional actions that will reinforce the expected or make the implementation of the actions easier and smoother...
