Case Assignment
Cross-Functional Management and Organization Behavior
HR/Team Dynamics, Leadership, and Organizational Culture were prevalent themes in earlier coursework. Connecting those concepts to Strategic Management is the focus of Case 1.
Strategic management is a complex discipline and requires tools and resources across departments. Research how it all works together to optimize performance and productivity in a culturally diverse environment. Use quality research published within the last year. Articles from the library databases are a good choice. Library databases allow searching by date. In Google search, click “Tools” and enter the date range.
- Explore the role of the overall management function. Include work from home (WFH) and hybrid schedules in the coverage. (1 page).
- How does marketing fit in the scenario? Consider social media implications in the workplace. (1 page).
- Connect how managerial economics supports the process. Look at trends like unemployment, reskilling, and the Great Resignation. (1 page).
- Consider the function of data analysis in the process. Include information on how data is used by managers. (1 page).
- Explore accounting and finance tools that are integral to achieving the performance and operational productivity goals. Consider how benchmarking is addressed. (1 page).
- Include a discussion of workplace diversity as a consideration. (1 page).
Making Connections
- Explain how Strategic Management provides a foundation for the cross-functional teams to collaborate for the benefit of the organization. (1 page).
Each of the seven sections above must have research support (published in the last year).
No quotations are permitted in this paper. Since you are engaging in research, cite and reference the sources in APA format. NOTE: Failure to use research with accompanying citations to support content will result in reduced scoring “Level 2-Developing” across the grading rubric. This is a professional paper, not a personal one based on feelings. It must be written in the third person. This means words like “I,” “we,” and “you” are not appropriate.
