Review the Week Six Course Material in the Lecture section and Resources section so that you are familiar with the research methodology regarding case study analysis.
Using the online library, locate a minimum of two (2) case studies that utilize your topic in some way.
Summarize what you glean from the case studies as it relates to your topic of interest (450-600 words).
NOTE: SELECT CASE STUDIES THAT WERE PUBLISHED WITHIN THE LAST TEN YEARS.
Use the following outline in your summary (in APA format with a Title page and References page):
Identify the business problems of each of the cases
Rank-order the critical issues stated in the cases
Evaluate the proposed solutions. Are the solutions valid? Why or why not?
Submit recommendations you propose beyond what is already stated in the cases.
State how the solutions will be communicated in each case. Do you agree? Why or why not?
At the end of the paper, write a paragraph expressing the takeaways/benefits of case study research methodology as it relates to the topics of the cases (which should be the same as your topic of interest.)
