MGT 370 – Management Skills Development Film Analysis – 150 points

Project Description For this project, your group will analyze a film from the list provided in class through the lens of Developing Management Skills. A film sign-up list will be provided during a class session.

In this analysis paper the group will identify ten different situations from their film choice. The

group must briefly summarize (one paragraph) each scene (include each scene frame time – i.e. 1 hour into the film or 5 minutes 30 seconds into the film) and then apply two course concepts for each of the 10 scenes identified. The concepts should come from a minimum of five separate textbook chapters covered in the course. Applied concepts may not be duplicated in the paper.

The analysis is NOT a synopsis of the film’s plot or a film review. The group should describe in detail the concepts as they relate to the film situation (provide the page number in the course textbook of the concept applied) and answer how and why the group believes that the concepts relate to that particular chosen movie scene.
