Assignment: Interview Questions
Instructions
Do your research on the organization and the person you will interview well before your meeting. Learn as much as possible from the organization's website, news sources, and the Shapiro Library. Preparing questions before the interview will keep you focused on information that is not publicly available.
Use the questions below when you conduct your interview. Write additional questions about the unique characteristics of the organization and the interviewee. Ideally, the person you interview works for the organization that you have chosen for your final project. If so, the information you gather from the interview will help you with your strategic analysis of that organization.
Use the answers to these questions and your additional questions to complete the short paper in Module Six.
