...[pic] School of Business Term Project Students will complete a final project that assesses understanding of course material and encompasses the major leadership skills developed throughout the semester. As part of a team, students will assess and properly frame a series of problems, and offer solutions in the form of a final report and presentation. As part of this effort, you will build a team, find ways to manage conflict, and cultivate influence. To begin, choose a (maximum) 5-person team, and everyone should read the scenario on page 3.

Your paper should specifically refer to and incorporate relevant material from the class textbook, and add additional relevant critical thinking about the topic area. Seek out and make proper use of additional information as needed. Do not answer the questions by simply quoting text material. Rather, summarize the material and offer additional insights.

...GROUP PRESENTATIONS (15%) DUE: Week 10 OR Week 11 Your task: Select one presentation topic. Research the topic using the GBC library catalogue, and locate four secondary sources (preferably articles) on this topic. Your presentation must have five secondary sources (please note: I am providing you a link to one secondary source below which may count towards your sources). Using secondary research, primary research (preferably a survey), and brainstorming your own ideas on this topic, you should create a comprehensive argument which you will showcase in a Power Point presentation. You may explore the issue from multiple perspectives, but must present a strong, defensible thesis. Topics: 1) Is the college degree worth the money you pay for it and/or does it guarantee you a return in investment? Should we view education as a humanistic experience or yet another consumer product? 2) Does communication technology impact workers’ productivity? Given the access to instant messenger, Facebook, and other social media, how do workers actually work? Explore this topic from a business perspective (you may choose to focus on the employer/ employee dynamic and reaching productivity goals). 3) Some companies sell “preferred access” to their services/products. Examples of this practice are priority lines introduced by select airlines or amusement parks. How do these business practices affect sales, the consumer, and business ethics? 4) Do the current immigration...

...as emphasized how much each business has to be individual in their approach to growing a sustainable business. In the article by Professor Frank Hoy, very important points on starting and growing a business are introduced to the reader. The corridor principle, which was discussed in class and elaborated on in this article, suggests that the only way to progress with a business idea is to actualize it by starting the business. This principle resonates with me because it suggests that planning only goes some way to inform you about the potential of your idea but until you really start to work on the idea you will never know how feasible your idea is and whether the direction you had for your business is a valid one or not. Most importantly, the article’s emphasis on the need for creativity in obtaining funds for a business opportunity applies to growing and managing new ventures as it shows how important the recognition of the right funding avenues is to managing and realizing your business opportunity. This part of the article to me explains the importance of the investor’s PowerPoint document. As mentioned in class, acquisition of investors is an important aspect of growing and managing new ventures since they provide a lifeline for your business to strive on. The PowerPoint presentation, which focuses on the elevator pitch and the 15-minute presentation to prospective investors relates partially to the elevator pitches given in class because even though we the students are...

...How to make an interesting presentation without being boring? The most challenging and educating part of mine was the last presentation. I’ve learned a lot about my topic because I have researched a lot in our college website. The project required us to present everything that we have learned in this semester about the topic we had chosen in the beginning. My topic was the “Hippie Movement.” I briefly talked about their history and life style. I made slides with Power Point and in the slides, I included lots of pictures so that everyone would focus and understand the information clearly. The presentation went smoothly, at the end I asked questions to the class, and everyone answered them without hesitating. This project was very interesting to me because I have learned more about the hippies and I have learned how to use the digital applications, to make my presentation exciting....

...creates an effective presentation and what skills are needed. It is also important to understand that effective presentation skills are not solely for the fortunate few who are naturally good communicators but that effective presentation skills can be developed in anyone and that we all have the ability to learn how to become highly effective presenters. In this article we’ll be looking at some techniques to help you achieve more from your presentations. Key Objectives of Effective Presentation Skills The key objectives that underline a good presentation often include the following: * To establish credibility with your audience * To communicate information clearly to your audience * To persuade and/or influence your audience To achieve these objectives, there are a range of practical skills that you can develop to help you become an effective presenter. We can categorise these skills into three main areas: * The ability to create a clear message * The ability to deliver your message effectively * The ability to fully engage with your audience. An effective presentation should cover all of these three areas, so let’s see how you can achieve this. Presentation Skill #1 – Create a clear effective message A clear message is normally a simple one. You may feel that you have to go into a lot of detail to get your message across but more often than not – “less is more”. Your audience are only able to take in so much during a presentation, so the clearer the...

...recount information day to day, there are also instances in which your memory denies retrieval in the way that it was stored or retrieve the information just as you stored it. Memory distortions, repressed, memories, and autobiographical memory each describe different ways in which your memory responds when you try to recall the information. “Memory distortion refers to a memory report that differs from what actually occurred” (Bernstein & Loftus, 2008). Repressed memories occur when traumatic events are unconsciously recorded in the mind as a defense mechanism to avoid anxiety or other issues that might arise from the occasion. Autobiographical memory suggests that a person retains and retrieves information pertaining to his own life. The articles; The Seven Sins of Memory by Murray (2003), The Recovered Memory Controversy: A New Perspective by Gorman (2008), and Autobiographical Memory and Flexible Proceedings of World Academy of Science: Engineering & Technology by Aizpura & Koutstaal (2010) each give further insight on the memory types as well as how they are encountered.

This website allows you to browse through collections from various designers at the spring/summer RESORT 2016 fashion show. You can also browse through upcoming fashion trends. CHECK OUT THE LINK BELOW! http://www.style.com/fashion-shows For the power point I’ve posted the upcoming color schemes/trends for spring/summer 2016 below. I believe it would be a good idea to check out these two websites and draw information from them for our PowerPoint presentation, especially the colors. I’m thinking we could use the colors that are in trend or some of the photos posted on these two sites for our power point background. CHECK OUT THE LINK BELOW! Let me know what you guys think. https://www.weconnectfashion.com/articles/top-10-colors-women-s-market-s-s-2016 Christa’s Tasks Manicure and pedicure: I couldn’t choose between the yellow and burgundy.

...In“College Lectures: Is Anybody Listening?” David Daniels argues that lecture system influences students, professors, and even American business. According to Daniels, the present system makes American education less challenged and thus results in the lack of basic skills and general culture of college graduates. The lectures are ineffective and should be replaced by workable methods. He says large lecture classes harm not only students, who became impatient listeners because of the lack of“active listening” as they begin their college life, but also professors on account of less feedback, few questions and comments. In spite of the shortcomings, the lecture system will continue to be carried out because of its economic necessity and long tradition. Therefore, Daniels suggests that smaller discussion classes are supposed to be given during the first two years of college, when students need close and respective instruction, in order to improve their intelligent listening skills and creative thinking way. I am partly convinced of Daniels’ opinion. However, my personal experiences show that lectures are not exactly so redundant while small discussion classes are not really adorable. As far as I am concerned, classes respecting languages should indeed be given as small classes, instead of large lecture classes that consist of a great number of students. Take my Japanese and Spanish classes for example; these courses are exactly given as large classes. The instructors are quite fine...
