Introduction

In this assessment, you will create a final business report that you will write in your role as a business consultant. This report will be compiled from your previous assessments with the addition of new material.

Preparation

In this assessment, you will create a final business report that you will write in your role as a business consultant. This report will be compiled from your previous assessments with the addition of new material. In this report, you will inform the CEO of potential business problems and effective organizational leadership models, theories, and frameworks that put the problems into perspective.

You will be expected to revise and add to your previously submitted work, based on any feedback you received, to create a doctoral-level paper that can be used as an artifact in your ePortfolio. You must show revisions to your previous assessments using Track Changes. To do this,

Before you have turned on Track Changes, combine your previous work into one document.
Turn on Track Changes and revise your work based on instructor feedback you received in your earlier assessments.
Turn Track Changes off and continue writing the new material for this assessment.
Go to the DBA Submissions Requirements page for more information about using Track Changes.

Instructions

Part 1: Business Report
Write an 8–10-page business report in which you complete the following:

Write a one-page executive summary that summarizes the 8–10-page business report.
Describe best practices for the creation of a business plan that aligns with organizational goals, with the inclusion of a business planning model and an illustration of that model.
Make any revisions to the three business problem statements you developed in the previous assessments, stating the specific problem for each of the following three areas: leadership, information systems, and marketing. State, “The specific leadership problem is…”.

For the leadership problem, include an illustration that shows how the problem was narrowed down using a fishbone diagram (Ishikawa diagram) or a cause-and-effect diagram, where you identified the problem, worked out the major factors involved, and identified possible causes of the leadership problem.

For your leadership problem, identify an applied framework (which can be based on a theoretical, conceptual, process, or development framework) and explain how the framework relates to the leadership problem. Explain the rationale for selecting this framework. Recognize that an applied framework is a real-world guide or lens for a business practitioner to follow and use to mitigate or overcome the problem.

For your leadership problem, construct and include a mind map to illustrate the linkages among the key concepts in the applied framework. Give a detailed explanation of the mind map
For each problem you developed, identify, discuss, and explain a model or theory within scholarly and practitioner literature that can be used to further understand the problem. For clarity, you should identify, discuss, and explain at least three models or theories, not simply one model or theory that would apply to all three business problems.

In addition, create an appendix with a brief (1-2 paragraphs) reflection on the writing feedback you received and how you applied the feedback to improve your work. Reflect on the nature of the constructive feedback you received, and explain how you will improve the quality of the doctoral work.
