Written Paper Guidelines

There should be a title page with the title of the presentation and the group number.

The paper should be divided into sections with section headings. The section headings should be in bold.

For example:

The Structure of the Organization

The xyz corporation is divided into geographical areas. Within the geographical divisions the company is divided into functions.

Your paper will be based on the questions from the case, but don't just divide the sections into answers to the questions for the case. The questions are not necessarily in any order, and some of the questions may not follow from other questions. Proofread the paper to make sure that all the sections fit together. The paper should read like one paper not the product of multiple authors. One tip for making the paper flow is to have transition sentences and paragraphs that introduce sections and explain how the current section is related to previous sections.

Paragraphs should have one topic and should be shorter rather than longer. If a paragraph fills an entire page, then it probably needs to be broken into two or three paragraphs.

Your grade will be based on the application of theories from the course, as well as the use of correct spelling and grammar.

There is a 5 page limit. Please use a 12 point font, 1 inch margins, and double space.
