Final Project -

This project is worth 30% of your final grade. This final project allows student to demonstrate what they have learned in the course by applying the course material to a business decision as well as evaluate the interaction with stakeholders and the management of risk, and the role of change in decision making. Students should review all learning activities and assignments to ensure an understanding of key concepts.
The case study can be found here, McConnel's Spice.

Part One:

In the final project you have four potential decisions to make from the fact pattern, two individual decisions for Jackson, a group decision for the firm selection, and one decision for the organization.

• In four to five pages identify the four decisions.

• Then, set out each decision and demonstrate how Joe, the group, and the organization might approach, and apply the decision making process to the issue.

• Explain in detail the decision, alternatives, bias, consequences, environmental, ethical, and situational factors that may affect the process of decision making upon each level.

• Substantiate your conclusions with course material and/or outside resources.

Part Two:

We have discussed in class that decision making usually requires change and that in turn may bring about another decision. Review Jackson's decisions and write a one page epilogue to his decision making. Was it effective? Did it generate any new decisions to make? Be sure to look at ways to measure the success of the decisions.
