...synopsis of the Jones and Shephard case. The Co added extra obligations and responsibilities to be managed with the addition of the ISD department, which made the work load that currently existed, be more of a deficit than a benefit to the Co. The main focus was to resolve internal projects to a satisfying level and incorporate the needs of the external customers with sufficient supported outcomes of both. 2. Highlight three enterprise management causes/considerations and three project management causes/considerations for the situation. Include what seemed to be missing. From the business objective; the implementation of the ISD department was added too rapidly, and the addition of approximately 50 new employees created a budget increase where this could have been minimized or alleviated. The business did not have a well thought out plan when they added the ISD division, with no project supervisor that could only focus on this new implementation. The business did not allow the Division Director to focus on strategic planning and policy formulation as a main focus to help enhance the company. The projects X and Y were not guided by individual project managers, which caused the Director to be solely responsible for the daily performance of them. There was no head person or supervisor in place to deal with Customer inquiries and needs. The Idea of the Matrix would seem to be a proven effective internal structure for the Department to follow that way the success of the company...

...education is quite different from most of the methods of teaching used at the school and undergraduate course levels. Unlike traditional lecture-based teaching where student participation in the classroom is minimal, the case method is an active learning method, which requires participation and involvement from the student in the classroom. For students who have been exposed only to the traditional teaching methods, this calls for a major change in their approach to learning. This introduction is intended to provide students with some basic information about the case method, and guidelines about what they must do to gain the maximum benefit from the method. We begin by taking a brief look at what case studies are, and how they are used in the classroom. Then we discuss what the student needs to do to prepare for a class, and what she can expect during the case discussion. We also explain how student performance is evaluated in a case study based course. Finally, we describe the benefits a student of management can expect to gain through the use of the case method. WHAT IS A CASE STUDY? There is no universally accepted definition for a case study, and the case method means different things to different people. Consequently, all case studies are not structured similarly, and variations abound in terms of style, structure and approach. Case material ranges from small caselets (a few paragraphs to one-two pages) to short cases (four to six pages) and from 10 to 18 page case studies...
