Research your selected company to identify three issues that the company is experiencing or has experienced in the last five years. These may include examples such as market entry or exit, labor relations, human resources, expansion/contraction of the workforce, entry into new or foreign markets, mergers/acquisitions, or major changes in top management or ownership.
The assignment should be three full pages of text (double-spaced) with in-text citations conforming to APA standards. A cover page and reference page should also be included. (That is a total of five pages: a cover page, three text pages, and a reference page). Business documents should adhere to APA format. However, you may exclude the APA requirement for an abstract and executive summary. Papers will be submitted via Blackboard. The paper should use 12 points Calibri or Times New Roman style font, with one-inch margins.
The paper will be graded on the following criteria: professional writing; content; proper grammar, spelling, punctuation; paper organization; APA formatting; proper use of in-text citations; and reference section. Papers will be submitted via Blackboard in a Microsoft Word document file.
You must submit your paper using SafeAssign, which is incorporated into Blackboard. SafeAssign is an anti-plagiarism software. Plagiarism will result in the failure of the assignment and the potential for additional action based on university policy per the course syllabus.
