Assume the role of consultant to McDonald’s. CEO Chris Kempczinsky has asked you for an analysis of the case situation and your recommendations moving forward.

The assignment should be submitted in no more than 2,500 words of text, plus a maximum of 3 pages worth of optional exhibits. Exhibits must consist of student analyzed work, rather than mere reproductions of reading or lecture material. They must clearly support, and be referenced within, the text to be considered valid components of the report. They may be inserted within the pages of the section or appended to the document.The only materials you should use in preparing the assignment is the case itself and the reading and lecture material assigned to date. External research tends to contaminate analysis and is not condoned. Submissions will be checked for breaches of academic integrity and such breaches will be met with zero tolerance.
