  1. Research Question (or set of questions) that the research will be designed to answer e.g. “What are the key leadership competencies which make a Six Sigma project successful?”.

  • What makes Six Sigma projects unique?
  • What makes a Six Sigma project successful?
  • What are the typical reasons for failure of Six Sigma projects?
  1. Research Aims. What is it you are aiming to achieve? What will the research establish and what is the value of the research?
  2. Research Objectives. The next step is to generate the objectives of the research.  These are the major objectives that have to be accomplished to answer the research question and achieve the stated aim/s. Keeping with the previous example, they are:
  1. Explore Six Sigma improvement project characteristics.
  2. Examine the components of a successful Six Sigma improvement project.
  3. Develop a list of leadership competencies in support of a successful Six Sigma improvement project.

Write a memo to help new project managers joining the company, in regard to “escalation of commitment.”

Responses will be graded according to three criteria:

Accuracy (have you accurately characterized the keywords discussed in your answer)
Breadth (did you sample a broad range of the content relevant to the question)
Relevance (did you refrain from focusing on content that is tangential or less critical to the focus of the question).
Therefore, you should focus on accurately and adequately answering each question but avoid unnecessary length. Use proper paragraphing to ensure your ideas are properly communicated.

Question 1:

Assume your CEO asked you, an experienced project manager, to write a memo to help new project managers joining the company, in regard to “escalation of commitment.” Your memo should include – at minimum – five recommendations about what factors he/she needs to be aware of in order to avoid making poor decisions as they relate to persisting with a project. Your memo must consider factors that lead to people persisting in failed projects as well as factors that lead people to give up prematurely.

If you would like, feel free to use materials on escalation of commitment (i.e., Staw & Ross (1987);Preview the document Drummond (2014)Preview the document. Begin by listing the five bolded recommendations that your answer will revolve around. Write them as a numerical list (e.g., 1., 2., 3.), though the order of your list is not important. Note that, although you can mention other concepts in your answer, most of the content in your answer should revolve around the three bolded keywords written in your list. After creating your list, go on to craft your actual answer. (50 points)

Question 2:

Assume your boss came to you and revealed that the tough economic conditions are going to require some big changes in the way your company does business. “We need to think outside the box,” your boss suggests, “and do something innovative that our competitors wouldn’t anticipate.” You volunteer to develop some ideas, but your boss tells you to create a committee to look at the problem. You think you’d be more effective alone, but your boss thinks the committee would provide more value. Who’s correct? Support your chosen answer using three concepts, theories, or relationships (as different from one another as possible)

Begin by listing the three bolded keywords that your answer will revolve around. Write them as a numerical list (e.g., 1., 2., 3.), though the order of your list is not important. Note that, although you can mention other concepts in your answer, most of the content in your answer should revolve around the three bolded keywords written in your list. After creating your list, go on to craft your actual answer.

*attachments has the necessary information* This is a group assignment. i am only responsible for parts 11,12,13 in the doc “group_case_study_instructions(3)”.

A formal, in-depth case study analysis requires you to utilize the entire strategic management process. Assume your group is a consulting team asked by the ABC Corporation to analyze its external/internal environment and make strategic recommendations. You must include exhibits to support your analysis and recommendations.
The case study must include these components:
Cover page (must include the company name, your group name, a list of the active team members, the date of submission, and a references page; the document must follow current APA guidelines)
Matrices, which must be exhibits/attachments in the appendix and not part of the body of the analysis (The Strategy Club has excellent templates/examples for exhibits and matrices: http://strategyclub.com/free-student-template/)
Case study deliverables (text must follow this order with current APA level headings for each component):
Pro-Forma Financial Statements (I/S, B/S and Statement of Cash Flows) with deltas out 3 years and analysis
Each year must have 2 columns: 1 with your strategy and 1 without your strategy.
Include Pro-Forma ratios for the first year out with deltas contrasting from the most current year’s ratios.
Net Present Value analysis of proposed strategy’s new cash flow and EPS/EBIT analysis – you may use Excel to calculate these.
NOTE: To construct the first cash flow (cf1) at the very minimum, the new revenue from your strategy(s) must be discounted back to the present value by calculating EBIT and that figure will be your cfn for each year. cf0 (initial cost of your strategy), cf1 (discounted cash flow first year), r (opportunity cost of capital, the rate of the next best alternative use of cash/debt/equity resources).
NPV=-〖cf〗_0+ 〖cf〗_1/(1+r)^1 +〖cf〗_2/(1+r)^2 +〖cf〗_3/(1+r)^3 …〖cf〗_n/(1+r)^n
Specific recommended strategy and long term objectives
Explain why you chose the strategy, and discuss how much the strategy will cost to implement and how much new revenue your strategy will create. Include your action timetable agenda for accomplishing your strategy.
