All formal papers for this class require headers in proper APA format. For this assignment, headers should include (but are not limited to) the following:

Positive/Negative Strategies
Insightful Strategic Elements

Case study assignments must use formal writing, third-person point of view only, use proper APA 6th edition format, include scholarly references and research and provide analysis, not simply definition type writing. The main focus needs to be answering the questions with well-reasoned, insightful analysis. A simple recitation of what is in the case or the text is not adequate. Feel free to make comparisons to other organizations.
