Hi. you need to write about a company. and there are few topics you can choose any four topic for the assignment. No word limitation but it have to be more than 16 pages. along with that you need to make a short power point that we need to present with in 10 minutes. Please try to avoid the company like Tim Horton’s, MacDonald’s, KFC. Provide some chart and graph. No plagiarism is allow. I attached the question and follow APA format and check the rubric for score.Remember to not only describe what the organization is doing in each of these areas, but also to analysehow wellthey are doing in each area,which includes looking at how the competition might be doing. Good analysis considers both the good and the bad when looking at an organization.
Organizational Behaviour Analysis (25%)
Team assignment
Due:
Team Charter and Team Evaluations
Working in a self-selected team of 3-4 students, team will develop a comprehensive Organizational Behaviour analysis for a Canadian
company of their choice. With the help of the concepts learned in this course, the students will critically analyze an OB System/ subsystem utilizing secondary data research (peer-reviewed journals, published case-studies, company websites, google scholar – research
articles, videos, newspaper/ magazine articles) to identify problems and recommend constructive improvements.
Remember to not only describe what the organization is doing in each of these areas, but also to analyse how well they are doing in
each area, which includes looking at how the competition might be doing. Good analysis considers both the good and the bad when
looking at an organization.
