TMGT 7153-Management Paper Requirements-Assignment Overview-Final Paper

The overall objective of this assignment is for you to explore the various topics and functions from a management perspective of the organization you select. You will select an organization listed on the Fortune 100 Top Performing Company in the field of Management. The research can be found at the link on Bb under assignments.

 The paper should be typed, a minimum of 10 pages in length and double-spaced.  Cover sheet, table of contents, endnotes and a bibliography are also to be included.  You need a minimum of 10 sources and less than half of the resources should be pulled from the Internet, the remaining sources must be from documented sources. These documented, refereed sources will provide the framework for your topic paper. If you do not meet these minimum requirements it will severely affect your grade.  I will also be grading for grammar, punctuation, and format.  It needs to look professional. I will hand out requirement sheets for the papers and presentation.

Each management topic section should be approximately 1/2 page in length (you may go longer if needed but not shorter.)
