上游充通大 :安泰经济与管理学院 group,we will try to build a complete analysis of the situation and address the problems and issues it presents. Most managers spend very little time reading and even less time writing reports.This is especially true for managers in operations-intensive settings.For this reason,the classroom should be considered a laboratory in which you can test your ability to present your analyses and recommendations clearly,to convince your peers of the correctness of your approach to complex problems,and to illustrate your ability to achieve the desired results through the implementation of that approach. Some of the criteria that we will use to judge effective class participation include: 1.Is the participant a good listener? 2.Is the participant concise and articulate? 3.Are the points made relevant to the current discussion?Are they linked to the comments of others? 4.Do the comments show clear evidence of appropriate and insightful analysis of the case? Case Write-Ups These two papers should be written in the form of a memo for a manager to whom you report. In preparing this assignment,please adhere to the following guidelines: 1.Work in groups of either 4 or 5 students.This is a firm constraint,no exceptions. 2.Hand in one paper copy of the case write-up for each group(email attachments will not be accepted). 3.Written assignments are to be turned in at the beginning of class,in the classroom,on the day they are due. 4.Each student should have a personal copy of his/her team write-up for the corresponding class discussion. 5.Written assignments must be less than 4 pages long,use a character font size no smaller than 11,and be accompanied by up to 5 supporting exhibits.This is a firm constraint. 6.Exhibits should contain specific types of analysis,such as financial analysis,break- even charts,cost analysis,process-flow analysis,etc.,that is any relevant supporting information that is too detailed for the body of the paper. The case write-ups will be graded using the following criteria: Analysis 1.Does the paper contain analysis of the major issues? 2.Does the analysis incorporate properly the relevant tools? 3.Are assumptions made in the analysis stated explicitly? 4.Does the analysis isolate the fundamental causes of problems in the case? Recommended Actions 1.Are the criteria for choosing among alternative recommendations stated? 2.Are the criteria appropriate? 3.Is the plan of action integrated in a logical way and linked to the analysis? 44 group, we will try to build a complete analysis of the situation and address the problems and issues it presents.
