ADDITIONAL NOTES / INFORMATION:

This is it! Here you will finish integrating the environments of your chosen company. At this point, you should have all elements identified in your previous writings ( forums and paper assignments). Is there anything you would change at this point? Do you think you would be successful? Why or why not? The assignment this week will be a final simulation project for your chosen company. Using your company you’ve been working with, recognize all the environments you’ve studied – domestic, global, technological, political/legal, sociocultural, and economic. All environments must be included. Once you have each identified, it’s time to analyze and synthesize. What is each individual environment like? How are they working? What issues do you see? What would you change and why? It won't be acceptable to state you wouldn't change anything. Really apply what you've learned from your research.

Now, take a look at all environments together, as whole and not individual pieces. Is each working together? Is an environment causing limitations on another? If so, which environments are involved and what are the limitations? What could you change to create synergy?

  All Sources must be “Scholarly Article or Book”. A scholarly article or book generally is based on original research or experimentation. It is written by a researcher or expert in the field who is often affiliated with a college or university. Most scholarly writing includes footnotes and/or a bibliography and may include graphs or charts as illustrations as opposed to glossy pictures. In addition, articles that appear in scholarly journals or book that are published by academic presses, are subject to a peer-review process, which means that other "experts" or specialist in the field evaluate the quality and originality of the research as precondition of publication. The peer-review (as opposed to editorial review) process is also one thing that sets scholarly journals apart from journals that may otherwise seem quite similar. Journals such as Foreign Affairs, for instance, are generally not considers "scholarly journals," because many of the articles are solicited by the magazine's editors; in addition many of the articles are written by policy-makers who may be expressing an informed view, but whose article may not be based on original research.Scholarly research is typically published by a academic association or a university/academic press. In international relations and comparative politics, representative scholarly journals include Asian Survey, Comparative Politics, International Organization, International Security Studies, Journal of Comparative Politics, Journal of Democracy, and World Politics.
