Expert answer:Choose an organization according to the following:
Current employer
Most recent or former employer
Place of business that you have patronized or have been familiar with over a long period of time.
Avoid choosing an organization that is so large that historical data would be difficult to apply. Firms in the Russell 2000® index may fit well, whereas firms in the Dow 30 Industrial index probably do not.
The organization can be a start-up that you or a significant other may create in the future. For a start-up, focus on an entrepreneurial idea that is of substantive interest, so this project leaves you with a product you may leverage in the future.
Create an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation in which you address the following:
Identify the major components of the strategic management process.
Discuss how these components work together to create value for the organization.
Evaluate the company’s mission statement, vision statement, motivation strategy, innovation strategy, and people strategy. If the organization does not have one or more of these, how does that affect the organization and its people?
Explain the role of ethics and corporate social responsibility in strategic planning. How does this direct their strategy? How does the organization’s vison and mission align with your own values and vision? If you are currently working for the organization, how does your role influence this and vice versa?
Include a reference slide formatted according to APA guidelines. Click the Assignment Files tab to submit your assignment.

Individual Assignment: Values and Strategy Paper
Purpose of Assignment
The Week 1 assignment really lays the foundation for the rest of the course. Students have the opportunity to
look at the entire process of strategic management of an organization as well as the mission, vision, and
values. With this foundation, students will be working together with their teams to develop a strategic plan and
also create their own mini-strategies. They are able to take a look at the process as a whole in Week 1 and
see how what they are doing fits in with the process.
