Identification of Issues	Does not recognize the problems or issues of the case, or identifies problems and issues that are not based on facts of the case; displays little understanding of the issues, key problems, and the company’s present situation and strategic challenges; executive summary does not present a clear overview of the case issues; main points are not outlined, or cannot be understood	With a few exceptions, identifies and outlines the principal problems and issues in the case; demonstrates an acceptable understanding of the company’s issues, current situation, and strategic challenges; executive summary provides an adequate overview of the case issues and problems; summary is missing a few minor points, but meets expectations	Presents accurate and detailed descriptions of the problems and issues central to the case; provides a well-focused diagnosis of strategic issues and key problems that demonstrates an excellent grasp of the company’s present situation and strategic challenges; descriptions are compelling and insightful; provides a thorough and effective executive summary
Connections to Theoretical and Empirical Research	Makes little or no connection between the issues and problems in the case and relevant theoretical and empirical research, or the connections identified are weak or inaccurate in many respects	Identifies and outlines connections between some of the issues and problems in the case and relevant theoretical and empirical research; the connections identified are adequately elucidated	Makes appropriate, insightful, and powerful connections between the issues and problems in the case and relevant theory and empirical data; effectively integrates multiple sources of knowledge with case information
Comments:
Quantative and qualitative Analysis and Evaluation	Simply repeats facts identified in the case and does not discuss the relevance of these facts; fails to draw conclusions, or conclusions are not justified or supported; does not present relevant research or data; shows no critical examination of case issues	Provides an acceptable analysis of most of the issues and problems in the case; in most instances, analysis is adequately supported by theory and empirical data; appropriate conclusions are outlined and summarized	Presents a balanced, in-depth, and critical assessment of the facts of the case in light of relevant empirical and theoretical research; develops insightful and well-supported conclusions using reasoned, sound, and informed judgments
Comments:
Action Plans	Has difficulty identifying alternatives and appropriate courses of action; few if any alternatives are presented, infeasible actions are proposed, action plans are not supported, or actions do not address the key issues and problems in the case	Outlines and summarizes some alternative courses of action to deal with most of the issues and problems in the case; in most instances, proposed action plans are outlined, are feasible, and based on relatively sound theory and evidence	Effectively weighs and assesses a variety of alternative actions that address the multiple issues central to the case; proposes detailed plans of action; action plans are realistic and contain thorough and well-reasoned justifications
Comments:
Evaluation of Consequences /risk identification	Displays limited awareness and/or understanding of the consequences of action plans; fails to identify implications and consequences of proposed action plans; identified outcomes do not follow from proposed action plans, or outcomes are not related to issues in the case	Demonstrates acceptable analysis of the results of proposed action plans; adequately outlines and summarizes the implications and consequences resulting from alternative courses of action; with a few minor exceptions, identified consequences of action plans are related to key issues in the case	Objectively and critically reflects upon alternative plans of action; effectively identifies, thoroughly discusses, and insightfully evaluates the implications and consequences resulting from the proposed action plans; identified consequences are tied to the key issues central to the case
Written Communication Skills	Displays inadequate organization and/or development making the case analysis difficult to follow; the written case analysis exhibits multiple errors in grammar, sentence structure, and/or spelling; unacceptable writing skills (e.g., weaknesses in language facility and mechanics) hinder readability and contribute to an ineffective case analysis	Case analysis evidences satisfactory organization and development; the case analysis is readable and easy to follow with only a few lapses; uses good language conventions and mechanics with a few minor errors in spelling, grammar, sentence structure, and/or punctuation; case analysis meets expectations in this area	Effective organization and development contribute to full comprehension of written case analysis; readability is enhanced by facility in language use, excellent mechanics, and syntactic variety; uses language conventions effectively (e.g., spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, paragraphing, grammar, etc.)
Comments:
PPT structure	not very organized, didn't cover all areas for the case, format/font not easy to follow	Structure okay to follow, covers most of content areas, format/font is okay to read	Well organized including all parts required including introduction, body, analysis, recommendation and etc. Professionally formated with size and align. Structured well.
