Case Study Analysis

Overview:
For this Case Study, you will provide an analysis of the key concern in the case and
make connections to our course learnings. Case analysis is an important skill set to
develop because, in management, you will consistently be provided with information to
analyze and make the best decision for the organization.
Instructions:
• Read the case, think about its application, then read the case again for details.
• In your thesis, connect the case to one key concept in management. Questions
to consider can include:
o What situational constraints, issues, and/or factors have affected the
organization?
o Why might these situational constraints, issues, and/or factors have
surfaced?
o What are the ‘root causes’ of any identified dilemmas?
• In the body of your analysis, discuss how the leadership of the organization can
move the organization forward. Questions to consider can include:
o What opportunities exist to provide long-lasting solutions to the
constraints, issues, or concerns identified?
o What strengths can be capitalized upon, and what weaknesses will
prevent future growth?
o Does the current strategy need to change? Why or why not?
• Support your analysis with specific illustration(s) and/or example(s) from the
case.
Requirements:
• Include a clear introduction with thesis statement, body, and conclusion. Focus
on the quality of writing as opposed to length.
• Maximum of 4 pages in length, excluding the Title and Reference pages.
• APA format, including in-text citations for referenced works.
• At least two resources, one can be the case itself.
Be sure to read the criteria by which your work will be evaluated before you write
and again after you write.
