Part I: Executive Summary
Create an executive summary that features the highlights and takeaways from each component of the analysis you conducted in this course.
Part II: Strategic Analysis
Conduct a strategic analysis including all of the sections completed over the previous seven weeks, presented in a format like the Colgate-Palmolive example, that uses all the data from the Strategic-Analysis Template.
Be sure to include any revisions/corrections suggested by the instructor throughout the previous assignments.
Part III: PowerPoint Presentation (15-20-slides)
Presents the Strategic Analysis, findings, and resulting recommendations.
Incorporate relevant support from all the sources that have contributed to your learning in this class. This will include articles listed in the syllabus as well as those discovered during your individual (and team) research conducted to complete each segment of the Strategic Analysis.
Additional Information for the Deliverables
Finally, while you determine what word count will be required to make and support your report and recommendations, it is critical that you remember the following:
Being too verbose is as damaging as not saying enough.
Brevity is only effective if you have communicated every important element to the point that those receiving the report can make what they determine to be "informed" decisions.
Be sure to eliminate flowery, superfluous, over-embellished, if not misleading claims. Stick to factual findings that have been used to formulate your recommendations.
So, the word count, while not quantified, must be appropriate to communicate your findings and recommendations in a convincing and business professional manner.
Submit Executive Summary and Strategic Analysis in a Word document to the digital classroom. Submit PowerPoint Presentation as a document with speaker notes to the digital classroom.
All analysis in the paper should be substantiated with a minimum of five relevant and credible sources in support of your content. Credible sources need to be relevant to the assessment and can include GCU Library databases, corporate websites and peer-reviewed sources, or those provided in the topic Resources.
