Paper details:Management Competency Journal (15%):
Each chapter in the text has cases and self-assessment exercises. In this course you are required to prepare a journal in which you record what you have learned from completing each of the assigned cases and exercises. The Management Competency Journal is where you should demonstrate that you have mastered and can apply course concepts. It is not enough to just list your answers.

For “Case Studies,” read the case and then answer the questions at the end of the case be sure and apply the relevant course concepts as appropriate. Be sure to apply chapter concepts/models and also include the Case Questions in bold along with your answers.

For “Exercises” be sure that you discuss what you have learned about you. You are not required to duplicate or copy each exercise, just read and comply with the instructions for that particular exercise. Be sure to apply chapter concepts/models and give your score for each exercise as part of your discussion.
Again, a well thought out and complete response to each case/self-assessment applies concepts/models from the text to fully support your analysis. Expected length for responses is 1-2 complete paragraphs per question.
